adopted city, his pre-inaugural
headquarters.
With Nixon in victory were his
wife Pat, their daughters Julie and
Patricia, and Julie's fiance, David
Eisenhower..
Besides getting a formal wire
from Humphrey, Nixon received a
phone call from the vice presi-
dent. He said he told the vice
president that he sympathized
with him and knew how he must:
feel - having lost a close election
to John F. Kennedy in 1960. To his
ballroom audience, Nixon said:
"Winning is a lot. more fun."
Itwasn't fun,' however, for the
Democratic .candidates.
Humphrey and his running
mate, ;Sen. Edmund S. Muskie of
Maine, after winning the Demo-
ratic nominations in a conven-
tion held under armed guard be-
cause of Chicago street disorders,
began their campaign with polls
showing them 15 percentage points
behind Nixon and; Agnew.
But in the final weeks they
closed the gap so rapidly that
professional pollsters said the race
was too close to predict a win-
ner.
While vote-rich Illinois and Cal-
ifornia put him over the top,
Nixon laid the foundation for his
victory by capturing crucial bord-
3r states and sweeping virtually all
Midwest, Mountain and Far West
3tatesi
-He carried 30 states in all and
was ahead in one other.
Humphrey, whose strategy was
built on winning the big industrial
States, carried New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Michigan, Texas, and seven
ather states, plus the District of
Columbia. But Nixon grabbed New
Jersey and Ohio - and the Demo-
,ratic hopes collapsed.
In one oddity, Humphrey car-
ried the home states of all four
major candidates - his own
Minnesota, Nixon's New York, Ag-
new's Maryland and Muskie's
Maine.

Wallace, the first third-party
candidate of the century to get
his name on the ballot in all
states, campaigned against the
"pseudo-intellectuals," the su-
preme Court, the pollsters, the
news media, and the "long-haired
anarchists" who heckled him from
coast to coast.
He had hoped to keep both Nix-
:n and Humphrey from winning
a majority of electoral votes. Un-
less a compromise could have been
worked out in the Electoral Col-
lege, this would have left to choice

to the House where Southerners
presumably would have had a
powerful bargaining position.
But Wallace failed to win any
state outside the South. His 45
electoral votes, collected in Ala-
bama, Arkansas. Georgia, Louisi-
ana and Mississippi, barely top-
ped the 39 electoral votes Sen.
Strom Thurmond of South Caro-
lina won as a third-party candi-
date 20 years ago.
And his popular vote was far
aff his claims and below estimates
of many polls.

"I'm going to be fighting spec-
ifically for some new social wel-
fare programs geared to helping
people and not geared to making
them dependents," Edmonds says.
But Edmonds is realistic" "I
don't think we'll be able to do the
things we should do. The board is
very conservative."
Edmonds' fellow liberal, Demo-
crat William Winters, is president
of a local union in Ypsilanti. The
two will spend much of their tine
trying to convince the board's
third Democrat, Aloysius P. Mi-
ick of Willis, to "groove with the
times."
Unfortunately, Minick is almost
as old as the combined ages of Ed-
monds and Winters and will not so
easily find faults with the board's
past performances. Minick has
twice served as chairman of the
county Democratic party.
County citizens also returned
.the three S's to the State Legis-
lature: arch-conservatives T o m
Sharpe (51st district), Roy Smith
(52nd district) and Ray Smit
(53rd district). A hard campaign

waged by present Democratic
county chairman George Sallade
against Smit went down in de-
feat 17,890 to 13,750.
The three men are another in-
dication of thecounty's continu-
ing conservatism. They took al-
most 60 per cent of the vote cast in
all three races.
Not counting Harvey, conserva-
tive Republicans took all of the
county offices. Present chairman
of the county supervisors Robert,
Harrison is the new county clerk.:
Harrison's election marks to end
of a 30-year regime by Luella M.
Smith, who retired this year.
Mrs. Smith, however, could pro-
bably have retained her position,
for the number of years-in-office
seemed to be a helpful factor in
this year's county elections. Of ten
incumbent supervisors, only two
were not elected to office this
time. And Patricia Newkirk Hardy,'
13 years the county's register of
deeds, was reelected to her posi-
tion by the largest margin of any
Republican candidate in the
county - almost 15,000 votes.
