No Tincture of Gold Weighs On New York Ballot
W W Bynum, chairman of the Gold Democratic executive committee in 1896, laments that the party cannot place its electors on the official New York ballot. He notes no votes were cast for the party candidate for governor in 1898, law requires prior state vote totals, and petitioning is impractical as Gold Democrats joined major parties. He warns New York could deny a national ticket and cites new Australian ballot laws as disadvantaging independent movements.
