California Democratic Council backs McCarthy write-in plan
The 30,000 member California Democratic Council voted to bolt the regular party and support a November write-in campaign for Senator Eugene McCarthy. The move follows a failed petition drive to place McCarthy on the ballot and reflects discontent after Chicago and Vietnam War tensions. Gerald Hill of San Francisco, McCarthy's California state cochairman, notes a largely split board with few directors firmly against the decision.
