Jersey Delegates Vote Yet for Taft at Convention

New Jersey sent twenty four delegates to the Republican National Convention to nominate a candidate. Taft led with J. S. Kean and Gouverneur Kort as primary supporters while Knox and Murphy were aboard as other contenders. The delegation was split over the platform and a minority plank on campaign publicity faced a veto from Ackerman. Delegates remained optimistic but unsettled as late as Sunday, with Governor Murphy rumored to threaten to withdraw if the delegation’s tactics faltered and Kean’s harmony program reported.
