Nixon and Rockefeller face shared and divergent election troubles

Washington AP Nixon and Rockefeller each carry one strike and one major problem as they vie for the 1960 Republican renomination. Nixon must secure conservative support while appealing to independents and voters who switch parties. Rockefeller seeks the nomination or a pro liberal platform if denied it. Voters in 1954 56 58 rejected Republicans even as Eisenhower won in 1956, highlighting a split between a popular president and his party. Conservatives back Nixon, but he must broaden appeal beyond his base without alienating them. The party pros likely view Rockefeller as a challenge to the platform, as his liberal ideas upset the status quo.
