Nixon Eyes New Hampshire Primary Strategy From China Trip
Nixon plans a seven day China visit from February 21 to 28 to maximize impact before New Hampshire's March 7 presidential primary. Republicans expect him to run for a second term, with a pledged slate of delegates, while campaign staff aim to blunt Paul McCloskey's challenge. The administration says dates were chosen for a successful outcome, and New Hampshire filing rules may require Nixon’s direct consent to place his name on the ballot or to back a slate of delegates. The Florida primary follows on March 14 with Nixon also on the ballot.
