Big May wave shapes as Roosevelt Dewey gain delegates
President Roosevelt and Thomas Dewey lead in instructed delegates for the Democratic and Republican races. Republicans have 514 of 1,000 delegates and will pick 477 in 26 states in May. Democrats hold 374 of 1,094 delegates and will choose at least 392 more in May. Iowa signals 22 votes for the President, with Massachusetts outcomes favoring Farley if Roosevelt seeks a third term. Republican battles in Massachusetts and Tennessee continue as unpledged delegates accumulate. Dewey allies claim strong delegate prospects despite campaigns against them. Taft backers insist he leads on first ballot, urging delegates to vote their own judgment.
