Ohio and Connecticut primary results and nominations
Ohio voters backed Roosevelt and Taft with unpledged delegates in a tightened presidential ballot. The Democratic ticket pledged to Charles Sawyer as a favorite son, while the GOP delegation backed Taft. West Virginia and Ohio races showed factional battles for Senate and governor, including Harold Burton and John McSweeney contenders. In Connecticut, GOP delegates were chosen, and Wyoming Democrats instructed their votes for Roosevelt if a third term is pursued. Margaret Smith seeks Congress as the first woman candidate from Maine.
