Smith Reveals Strength in New York Vote
In New York State the election reinforced Governor Alfred E. Smith's strength as voters defeated a constitutional amendment to extend the governor's term from two to four years. The measure failed about 2 to 1, with New York City nearly 3 to 1 against it. Smith's critics objected it would shift focus from state issues, while his backers claimed it would align with the president’s race. An approved amendment raised the governor's salary from 16 000 to 25 000 annually.
