New Iowa State Office Shakeup Looms After Election

Des Moines reports the post election scramble for state jobs as the Harding administration nears. Incumbent officeholders expect to stay in key posts like secretary of state and treasurer, while a new governor may overhaul the office force with new clerks and aides. Several terms run through 1917 to 1919, with multiple appointments and potential resignations anticipated across departments including justice, agriculture, and education.

Dry counties shift little as Harding leads in vote

In the counties known as democratic and wet, voters swung to the republican candidate for governor, while dry counties stayed largely fixed in Republican majorities. The report suggests 40,000 more Democratic votes for Harding, with Germans voting for both Harding and Hughes. Rural areas favored Harding due to road policy.
