While President Taft was easily able to defeat an insurgent challenge from Ronald Reagan in the AU primaries, the DA and WP would have more difficulty coalescing around one person. Former Vice President George McGovern, Senator Birch Bayh, and Senator Mo Udall are the last DA candidates standing in the convention, all arguing that they would be the best candidate to represent the party following Robert F. Kennedy's lackluster and divisive term as president. Meanwhile, the WP has whittled down their field to Senator Scoop Jackson and former North Carolina Governor Terry Sanford.

Two days.

Sanford (NC)/Tunney (CA) methinks.

And it looks like another Ballot will have to go for the DA before we can finally get the nominee huh?

AU is settled, and I don't see a lot of Scoop Jackson voters coming out the woodwork...especially not after he lost as running-mate in 1972 [3rd place], so Sanford is probably the Worker's nominee...so I'll update the Master thread while on a break.
