Abstract

Party Regularity in 1936?

R. G. S. | January 30, 1935 issue

add to cart   close window

The election of Senator Bronson M. Cutting of New Mexico has thrown into doubt the U.S. President's informal alliance with the Progressives. It might mean that the President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, has decided to run in 1936 without the help of Progressive leaders. Or it might simply be a personal punishment of Senator Cutting as a man whom the President has grown to dislike. However, the President will not be strong enough in 1936 to win without Progressive votes, even if he might think he could dispense with alliances with Progressive leaders.
