Kansas Republicans expect the McGovern Eagleton ticket to aid GOP chances in November. Leaders like Huck Boyd and Alf Landon criticize the ticket while noting Kansas would favor Nixon and see Republican gains. They cite Dole and Falstad discussions on delegate influence and political strategy in Kansas.
Kansas delegates to the Democratic National Convention returned home divided over McGovern but urged unity. Supporters said McGovern can win Kansas with labor and youth outreach, while opponents privately doubted Nixon could be stopped in November. Governor Docking planned to resume campaigning separately, and Eagleton was praised as a strong running mate. Kansas cast all 35 votes for Eagleton, the lone unanimous convention vote.
