tors are supporting Goldwater,
39.4 percent are supporting John
son.
It is interesting to note that in
California, a crucial state for
Senator Goldwater, twice as many
weeklies are endorsing the Repub
lican candidate as are endorsing
Johnson; and 65% of the Cali
fornia publishers responding to the
poll favored Goldwater.
Looks as though the Gallups, the
Lubells and others might be all
wrong again, and when Sen.
Goldwater is elected, much of the
credit can go to the “home-town”
paper.
