Nixon and Brown Clash in 1962 California Governor Race
California voters produced strong margins for Richard Nixon and Edmund G. Brown in the 1962 governor primary. Nixon led with a 2 to 1 advantage over Joseph C. Shell as returns from 17,489 of 31,212 precincts showed, while Brown dominated Democrats with about 782,000 votes amid lighter opposition. Brown vowed a vigorous contest, and Nixon pledged a full four-year term while seeking Shell's support despite rancor over past campaign clashes.
