At the state convention where at-large delegates-will be
selected, projections
indicated that Huskie will take five delegates, f.1cGovern three
delegates, and
the uncommitted will have four delegates.
This would give Muskie 18, McGovern 10, and the uncommitted 18
at the Democratic
National Convention in Miami.* These projections are
tentative,however. Under
Iowa law, no convention delegate can be bound to a candidate --
e. g. the relative
strength of the contenders may change as the national convention
approaches.
AN ANALYSIS
Muskie -- The Muskie forces hoped for a clear mandate out of
Iowa to add to their
"bandwagon" psychology. Heavy emphasis was 'put on big-name
endorsements by
organization people in the state. The final "coup" of this
strategy took
place on January 17, when Senator Harold Hughes surprised many
state Democrats
by announcing support of the f.1aine Senator. In addition,
Muskie had the support
of Iowa's 30,000-member United Auto Workers union, the only
union in the state
to break with labor's general strategy of electing uncommitted
delegates. Taking
no chances, Muskie still brought in eight last-minute, full-time
workers from
other stptes.
In spite of this effort, the Muskie forces could not win a clear
majority of . delegates -- a fact which will not be lost on
Democratic pols around the country.
McGovern -- The Senator established that he is at this point
still a viable
candidate. He concentrated his efforts on precinct organization
and was able to
slow f.1uskie's drive. The McGovern supporters, although a
minority, seem to be
"activists", who will turn out when needed at the tedious
precinct meetings.
f.1cGovern showed a lot of his strength in college towns. In
Iowa City, heavily
populated student precincts produced McGovern majorities and in
some instances,
support for Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm. f.1cGovern has to
have this type of
support to have any chance at the nomination.
Labor -- The large number of uncommitted delegates was testimony
that in this state, at least, labor strategy was working. Word had
gone out from George f.1eany for labor's minions to elect as many
uncommitted delegates as possible in order to have optimum
bargaining power at the Miami convention. Labor's muscle· along
with the hesitancy of many lower echelon Democrats to commit
themselves at this early date resulted in the large uncommitted
vote. In addition, the uncommitted vote was added to by supporters
of Hubert Humphrey and Edward Kennedy.
*In 1968, Iowa cast 19 1/2 for McCarthy, 18 1/2 for HHH, 5 for
McGovern and 3 for
Kennedy at the Democratic National Convention.
-
-3
SUMMARY
The Iowa results are indecisive. Huskie is still the frontrunner
for Miami, but he hasn't got it locked up yet. He will need more
than big-name endorsements to win the nomination. Labor enjoyed
initial success here, but the "uncommitted" strategy will be hard
to execute successfully in the other states.

1972 Democratic National Convention Votes -- 25
1972 Delegate Selection Dates
January 22. • .precinct caucuses February 12 • . .••. county
conventions February 26 • • • • • .state convention
Mississippi seems to be heading toward trouble in Miami. January
22 was the day under the new-reform rules to hold precinct caucuses
across the state. The meetings ~ held -- by two different
Democratic parties.
The morning meetings we;re held.by the "regulars", who control
the state party and virtually every public office in the state.
Governor Waller is securely in their camp. The evening meetings
\vere held by the "loyalists", the black dominated group that has
the official recognition of the Democratic National Conunittee.
Both sets of precinct meetings were nominally "open", but each side
refused to take part in the proceedings of the other.
Both sets of delegates are at this point uncommitted, although
Charles Evers, the black national committeeman, has pledged to
recruit delegates for John. Lindsay. Governor Waller of the
"regulars" speaks well of Senator Jackson and Congressman Wilbur
Mills with more "old-line" members favoring Governor Wallace of
Alabama.*
Chances of a compromise slate going to Miami decrease as the
Democratic Presidential contenders chose sides in the controversy.
Senator George McGovern has already accused the "regulars" of
racism. Look for a credentials fight in July, which could split the
national Democrats again on the race issue.
*In 1968, Mississippi cast 9 1/2 votes for Humphrey, 6 1/2 for
McCarthy, 4 for McGovern, and 2 for Reverend Channing Phillips at
the Democratic National Convention.

SUBJECT: Draft Lette r

(Allin/Elliott) RP February 4, 1972
On January 20, 1969, America was a troubled nation. There
was
division in the country, disruption on the campuses, inflation
in the
economy, crime in the cities, powderkegs in the ghettoes,
backlash in
the suburbs, and two hundred coffins a week coming home from
Vietnam.
As Richard Nixon took the oath of office, he inherited this
bitter
legacy. It required both political courage and statesmanship to
move
away from war and inflation, up onto the high road of peacetime
pros
perity. But Richard Nixon, more than any President before him,
has
quietly presided over major changes in policy and direction in
our
governITlent, and has restored our faith in the ability of our
systen. to
solve its problems and reflect the basic integrity of the
American
people.
The record of the Nixon Administration is clear: There have
been
dramatic new initiatives in foreign affairs designed to end our
involve
ITlent in the Indochina conflict and secure a lasting peace;
there have
been bold new economic policies to speed our progress toward a
sound
prosperity; there is a full agenda of domestic programs aimed
at
governITlent reform to make it truly responsive to the needs of
our
citizens; and there is much else that ren>ains to be
done.
-
-2
Progres s toward achieving what the President has called the
"great goals!! of our society requires the cooperation and
commitment
of every American. The vast majority shares the President's
con
viction that this is a great and good nation, one which has an
extra
ordinary capacity to set out upon a new course of action and
bring
together diverse elements in a creative force to improve
government
and our quality of life.
Where there was despair and frustration only a few years
ago,
there is now a growing sense of hope and faith in the
traditional
strengths of our institutions and in the fundamental goodwill of
our
countryYTlen. The President has made a beginning which
urgently
merits our support. He deserves and the Nation needs the
opportunity
to press for completion of his initiatives, both foreign and
domestic.
In his campaign for re-election, you can demonstrate your
support
in a vital and meaningful way - - with your personal check. A
contri
bution of $15 will enroll you as a member of the Committee. But
gifts
of $25, or $50, or $100, and larger are also welcome! If it is
signif
icant to you, it will be significant to us, and you may be sure
that every
dollar will be used in the re-election of the President. With
your
financial assistance and that of other concerned individuals, we
can
mount a campaign that will take the record of this Adminis
tration
-
-3
directly to the people, calmly but forcefully articulating its
accom
plishments, its far-reaching proposals and its confident vision
of the
future.
We urge you to join in this high adventure. It will be an
alliance
of citizens who believe that Ric hard Nixon has guided the
Nation
through an era of adversity and has brought us to the thres
hhold of a
full generation of peace with prosperity. This is our
opportunity. in
Lincoln's words, for us to "dare to do our duty as we understand
it. rr

HEHORANDUM FOR: LARRY HIGBY BRUCE KEHRLI
FROM: GORDON STRACHAN
SUBJECT: Absentee Voting in California
I checked with my Placer County Clerk, Maurene 1. Dobbas,
regarding the requirements for your application for absentee
ballots to assure your California residence for voting purposes.
She reports that the law requires that you file \vi th the County
Clerk a request for an absentee ballot stating your absence from
the state due tot , 54 days prior to the primary election. Since
California's primary is on June 6, you must have completed the
transaction with your county clerk by April 13. Since it usually
takes a few days for them to send the necessary forms for your
signature here in vlashington, I vlOuld suggest that you write and
get the process going in the near future. Larry, in your letter, I
\vould mention the fact that you "viII have a court proceeding
pending in your county of residence, Los Angeles.
