Ohio Primary Drift Shapes Taft Foster Governor Fight
May 26. The Republican State Convention at Crookton promises a silent friendly race between Judie Taft and ex-Congressman Charles Foster. Northern Ohio favors Foster, Southern Taft, with counties varying. Deliberations hint at a possible dark horse, but the nominee will be Taft or Foster, and the loser may be urged to accept second place. If Taft declines lieutenant governor, Lewis Seagutgood may be chosen. The ticket appears set to be Taft and Foster or Foster and Taft.
