About 15 of 21 GOP members back moving now, with a Wednesday caucus vote to settle among four candidates. Burns plans to step aside at the 1970 session start but opposes a vote this session. Nejedly’s swearing in gives the GOP a working majority, while Grunsky and Way push to demote Burns to aid Reagan’s agenda.
