Byrd’s Independent Run Questioned by Garland
Garland counters claims that Byrd loyally backed President Nixon. He cites the Congressional Quarterly Almanac showing Byrd voted with the President 58 percent in 1969 and against 42 percent, noting only 13 senators opposed the President more often. Garland says Byrd’s independence stems from political risk and personal interest.
