Maine Balloting Light as Governor and Congress Nominated
Maine voters nominated candidates for governor and two congressional seats amid light turnout. Incumbent Republican John H. Reed faced no opposition. Democrats chose between Maynard C. Dolloff and Richard J. Dubord. In the first district, GOP rivalries pitted Peter A. Garland against Stanley R. Tupper for the nomination. Democratic contenders Clyde Bartlett and Thomas L. Maynard competed for the party’s first district seat. A $1.5 million bond to create a state owned educational TV network was voted on.
