A New York Times survey of 2,576 state Democratic leaders shows President Johnson leading with 1,725 convention votes, Kennedy and McCarthy 790, Wallace 61. Johnson holds a sizeable cushion above the 1,312 needed for renomination, with strong southern backing and Kennedy's appeal waning in that region.
