McGovern in Logan Attacks Nixon Smugness and Broken Promises

Senator George McGovern denounced President Nixon as smug and untruthful before about 1,000 townspeople in Logan West Virginia. He charged Nixon broke more promises than any previous president and vowed to end the Vietnam War within 90 days of his election. He urged voters to focus on their own lives rather than public opinion polls and linked his attack to Appalachia’s economic issues and a nearby coal mine dam disaster that killed 118.
