Final Phase of GOP Race Begins Friday
The final phase of the Republican nomination race begins Friday as Barry Goldwater nears a first ballot victory. Washington state GOP delegates open their convention while two Colorado districts choose delegates, with about 65 more delegates to be selected by Saturday across Washington, Colorado, Alabama and Hawaii. An AP survey shows Goldwater poised for 625 to 650 first ballot votes, just shy of the 655 needed, aided by uncommitted and favorite son blocs in several states.
