Politicos in Switch Sway as Goldwater Gains and Defections
Southern Democrats unhappy with President Johnson and Republicans discontent with Barry Goldwater show their stance through varied acts. Some endorse the rival ticket, others stay noncommittal or run independent campaigns. Notable moves include Sen. Strom Thurmond joining the Republican Party for Goldwater, while Gov. Paul B. Johnson Jr. and ex-Gov. Ross Barnett support Goldwater without party changes. Further figures like Orval Faubus and Dan Moore express Democratic support without naming Johnson or Humphrey. Several key senators and representatives nationwide withhold support or remain silent.
