Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York says he will decide by fall whether to seek the Republican presidential nomination, basing the choice on public opinion polls and Nixon's strength. He insists he has no intention now but won’t rule out a late change if circumstances shift. He noted letters urging a run and praised Nixon’s handling of the Soviet visit, while Democratic governors weigh unlikely support for any single candidate.
