Baltimore Mayoral Primary Factions Nominate Winners
In Baltimore the Democratic and Republican organizations won decisive primaries. James H. Preston led the Democrats for mayor by 9,229 votes over J. Barry Mahool, while E. Clay Timanus topped the Republican field for mayor by 13,210. Other noted nominations included John Hubert for president of the second branch city council and George Hefner for comptroller. The vote, though higher than four years ago, fell short of expectations amid strong organization drive. The May 3 election will determine the final lineup as contests in many council districts remained close.
