AFL-CIO backs Humphrey as Muskie fights phantom in campaign
The Pennsylvania AFL-CIO gave Hubert Humphrey 63.7 percent support at the Pittsburgh convention, while Edmund Muskie pressed his New Hampshire bid. Muskie, campaigning from Portsmouth, warned of a phantom created by the press as he seeks to regain momentum amid Florida polling showing Wallace leading. Nixon’s re election team began to firm up with Mitchell returning as campaign manager.

McCarthy urges focus on issues over defeating Nixon
Former Minnesota senator Eugene McCarthy told about 4,000 at a Northern Illinois University rally that the Democratic party should concentrate on issues in the 1972 race rather than simply defeat Richard Nixon. He urged defining the issue first and then aiming to defeat Nixon, as he campaigns in Illinois for the May 21 presidential primary alongside Edmund Muskie. McGovern has joined two others in entering delegates states.
