Demos Begin Slow Move Toward 1968 Campaign
The Democratic National Committee shows tentative activity for November with a three volume campaign book and regional meetings. President Johnson may run an independent campaign, leaving Bailey and the committee with a limited role as Watson and Criswell coordinate White House contact. Voter registration lags, with substantial purges in California and New York, and local chiefs largely handle registration in those states. The party faces internal friction with state organizations and difficulty engaging youth amid the Vietnam War.
