Brown hints Cranston as vice president candidate in 1972
Former Gov. Edmund G. Brown told reporters that U S Sen. Alan Cranston could help elect a Democratic president in 1972 if named vice president. Brown, a Cranston friend, said Cranston liked the idea though he urged no party plans. He also mused on Ronald Reagan and Mayor May or John Lindsay, noting Reagan could rise if Nixon falters and Lindsay has limited nominating prospects.

Democrats Aim to Expand LA Special Assembly Majority
Key Assembly leaders in Los Angeles see a possible victory in the October 19 special election to fill David Roberti’s seat after he moved to the state Senate. Democratic cohesion on a single candidate is crucial to avoid a split that could embolden Republicans amid a 21 point registration margin in the 4th district with a large Mexican American population.
