Osborne Denies Personal Feelings in Colby's Actions
The speaker asserts that party unity matters more than personal contests in the Progressive nomination for Governor. Leaders should agree on one candidate to avoid bitter factionalism, with any chosen candidate then fully supported. The Direct Primary Law aims to enable contest while preserving leadership and voter will, not abolish conferences among leaders.
