Van Dems Await Word on Spong Re election Decision
Virginia Democrats expected a ruling on whether U.S. Senator William B. Spong Jr. would seek re election in 1973 with options of a primary run or renomination at the Roanoke state convention June 10. The Democratic State Central Committee had tentatively voted to nominate Spong unless he opts otherwise. Spong must decide by March 10. The Jefferson Jackson Day dinner drew about 600 members with Sen Lawton Chiles as speaker. Prominent gubernatorial prospects Godwin Miller and Cooke were expected in town. Howell campaigned in Florida for Hubert Humphrey despite plans for 1974 run.
