Wallace Lands in Las Vegas Amid Skystorm Delay
Former Alabama Governor George Wallace, running as American Independent candidate, arrived in Las Vegas after a storm halted his 100 passenger jet en route to Albuquerque. He stayed at the Kona Kai Motel end of the Strip and gave a freewheeling interview to reporters guarded by security and Secret Service. Wallace spoke on polls, the Electoral College, policing, segregation, welfare, and corporate tax status, insisting he could win a majority of the popular vote but discussing little about Republicans.
