The margin, toppling past 1964 levels, foresees heavy Midwest and West losses and weak GOP support among older voters amid Watergate fallout.

Mead says abortion is a necessary evil not a lifestyle
Anthropologist Margaret Mead told Planned Parenthood volunteers that she is 100 percent against abortion but regards it as a necessary backup due to societal failures in contraception education and resources. She urged a future where no woman turns to abortion and no unwanted births occur. In Beaumont Texas two teen prisoners escaped the 12th floor Jefferson County jail using a rope of torn sheets to descend the building.
