Senator George McGovern reports $261,000 in political revenues as he starts his 1971 presidential campaign. He plans about $500,000 on White House guest costs and expects major spending in 1972 for the primary elections. Initial fundraising came from a Jan 15 letter sent to 275,000 potential supporters, drawing roughly 14,000 responses and many small contributions. McGovern’s antiwar stance and Cambodia comments helped maintain contributions beyond January.
