George A. Pannell, president of Richmond’s Crusade for Voters, resigns in protest over the group’s endorsement of State Sen. Fitzgerald Bemiss and its failure to back Dr. William Ferguson Reid for the Democratic nomination. Reid lost by 31 votes in a bid to become the first Negro Democrat in the General Assembly. Pannell cites late endorsements and prearranged backing for other candidates, criticizes Crusade practices, but will remain a member and seeks reform from a lower post.
