Editorial Notebook Guesses on the 1960 election
An editor recalls past betting on elections and makes cautious forecasts for national and local races. Johnson leads nationally with Goldwater unlikely to win major totals, Kansas leaning Republican, and Republicans favored in state House contests. Local bids include Ellsworth, Angell, Bowers, and a contested county attorney race with Steere favored. Both constitutional amendments pass, and School District 30 backs a new high school bond on its fourth try.
