Labor Stand Stirs Up Storm in Texas Campaign
The Texas Labor Federation endorsed candidates for major offices including Coke R. Stevenson for Senate and Roger Evans for governor, triggering sharp pushback from rivals George Kellog and Lyndon Johnson. Jester focuses on governance as four weeks remain before the Democratic primary. The CIO took no endorsement, while national events from Philadelphia influenced local campaigns. Dewey’s nomination reshaped Texas GOP leadership debates and Eisenhower prospects. Johnson campaigned aggressively across districts, delivering up to 13 speeches in a day to 65,000 voters.
