The various polls now underway are interesting reading but the fact that there are conflicts in their reports leaves much room for debates as to the outcome. No matter how the election turns out, one thing is evident— that under the leadership of President Roosevelt, the Demo- cratic Party has become a factor to be reekoned with on the Pacific Coast, in the Plains and Middle States, There was a time, not many years ago, when most of these states were safely Republi- can, -This is not. true -and the campaign will probably be de- cided by the voters in these areas,! The poll being conducted by The Baltimore Sun newspapers is! based on ballots sent to every registered voter in the State of Maryland. Interesting is the fact that, just as the votes started to *flow in, The Sun, long known as a Democratic newspaper, an- nounced in an editorial on the front page, that it could not sup- port President Roosevelt for re- election. Last week, a total of 50,804 ballots had been returned in this straw vote. President Roosevelt’s per centage was 59.42 and Governor Landon’s 40.02. Mr. Roosevelt was running better th: two-to-one in the City of Balti- more and about six-to-five in counties of the State outside of Baltimore.
