Governor Bruce King of New Mexico says he views himself as a compromiser in the state’s first presidential primary. He declines a firm favorite among Democrats considering the nomination, but cites Senators Jackson and Muskie as possible signals, while noting broad Western governor sentiment for Jackson. King aims to work with the party and avoid a bitter primary, while acknowledging limited ability to appoint due to the State Personnel Act. He sees potential locally to prevent candidate concentration in the senatorial race and mentions possible contenders.
