Democrats Draft Platform in Secret Meetings
The 15 member Democratic platform subcommittee began closed sessions to draft a 1976 platform led by Gov. Michael Dukakis. Carter’s near nomination may influence the draft, but the process aims for a focused document on foreign policy and employment to be finalized next week and later presented to delegates at the June convention.
