Ford Wins In Key Test At Minnesota Convention
Ford backers won a key rule change at the Minnesota Independent Republican convention, securing majority support for the 18 remaining delegates. Reagan denounced the move while Carter’s delegate total for the Democratic nomination rose past 1,505. Delegates voted 877 to 787 for the majority rule, with Ford favored by about 55 percent. Reagan lobbyists pushed for a single ballot, warning of party division if split. Carter’s campaign highlighted gains as the convention nears.
