MEMORANDUM FOR: THE PRESIDENT

FROM: HARRY S. DENT

SUBJECT: Evaluation of Yesterday's Primaries

Tue~day's primaries across the country produced three significant upsets, all of which may prove to be in our favor. Governor Peterson was defeated by Meldrin. Thomson. Our people knew Peterson's position had weakened for the general election because of the tax backlash but they didn't realize was enough £or him to be defeated in our own primary. Thomson is a conservative and ran against Peterson last time on the AlP ticket. It is expected that with the good Presidential pull at the top and no tax backlash we stand a better chance of holding the seat. Wesley Powell won the Senate nomi­ nation. Locally they believe he has a better chance to upset McIntyre because of his pull with conservative Democrats and the strong Presidential race.

Congressman Wayne Aspinall proved to be weaker than expected, so now our campaign people believe we have a better shot at this seat with a good candidate in James Johnson. Thus the race has been upgraded.

In South Carolina we hope to have Ed Young, a first-rate candidate and South Carolina Farmer of the Year, to replace a ghost candidate for the McMillan congressional seat. This would give us an excellent chance for a pickup in view of McMillan's unexpected defeat. McMillan - 2 ­ made a deal which backfired, and finally all of the blacks ganged up on him after supporting him previously.

In utah two moderate-type Republicans beat back challenges from two Birchers for the two congressional nominations. CQngressman Lloyd had been very worried.

In , the victory of State Senator Myron Lotto should enable us to hold onto Johnny Byrnes' seat.

With Governor Davis' friend Luther Hackett as the nominee, we believe we should hold the Vermont governorship.

Ou~ Nevada people are encouraged that we may pick up the one Nevada congressional seat since a very liberal Demo­ crat upset Baring last week.

Lowenstein has won a ruling for a re~run against Rooney in New York. He might be able to worm his way back into the House.

Overall, incumbents continue to have more difficulties than expected. MEMORANDUM

MEMORANDUM FOR: THE PRESIDENT

FROM: HARRY S. DENT

SUBJECT: Primaries: California New Jersey New Mexico South Dakota

• George McGovern won all four primaries Tuesday to give him over 900 delegates and clearly establish him as the biggest vote getter, delegate winner, and primary victor on the Democrat side. He appeared to be winning by 9% in California with 5% of the vote counted. Wallace, getting a 5% ~rite-in vote there, pulled a surprise in New Mexico, finishing second with 29% and half the delegate votes -- all without ap.y campaigning.

The President held Ashbrook to 10% in California, while McCloskey got 6% in New Mexico and one delegate vote.

Senators Eastland, Case, and Metcalf won their primaries. In South Dakota, Rep. Abourezk will be pitted against either ex-State Senator Robert Hirsch or Attorney General Gordon Mydland. (Convention to decide because Hirsch didn't get 35%).

James Meredith was defeated in the Mississippi GOP Senate primary by VW dealer Gil Carmichael 80% to 20%.

McGovern won all 271 delegates in California, 9 (half) in New Mexico, all 17 from South Dakota (no competition), and at least 59 of New Jersey's 109. McGovern expects 80 votes from New Jersey.

There was no direct head-to-head vote count in; New Jersey. McGovern's slate leader got 30,000 more votes than HHH' s leader with 80% of the vote counted. It was a defeat for the old Demo machine. 2

CBS projected only a five point victory lUargin for McGovern in California. He won big with youth and split the black vote in California and New Jersey. Los Angeles and Orange County a1lUost pulled the HUlnp through.

HHH says he will keep on, but told his supporters he will see that the DelUos are united to beat RN.

CBS also projects 1266 delegate votes for McGovern at convention tilne to 540 for HHH.

McCloskey beat his two prilnary opponents 24,000 to 17, 000 each.

The Presidentl s delegate count now stands at 818, with 674 needed for nOlUination.

In New Mexico, the DelUos nOlUinated ex-State Rep. Jack Daniels to contest with 1970 GOP gubernatorial candidate Pete DOlUenici who easily knocked off Dave Cargo -- in the U. S. Senate race. 3
