Stronger Now Senator Cannon Aims For 1970 Run
UPI reports Senator Len Cannon of Nevada says he will run stronger in 1970 than in the 1964 race when he won by 84 votes after a recount. He expects a strong GOP opponent, possibly but not necessarily Paul Laxalt, and will announce next spring if he runs. Cannon cites added seniority and committee assignments as bolstering his position. He criticizes inflation measures and advocates cuts in federal defense spending and a major income tax reform.
