Community Auditorium, oF eR “REAL FIGHT” NOW ON Phe shouting and tumult have just begun, so. sai is yesterday s primary in Key West is concerned. Prim- ary means beginning, and the contest that really counts ir he election of three City Commissioners begins in earn- est today. The Citizen feels confident that none of the si, inees needs to be advised that the results of the first prin ary are not’sure indications of how the election will turi out. Hundreds of cases in the nation, state and could be cited to show that mén who were in the lead in the first primary lost in the second primary or in the elec tion, as is the procedure in electing City Commissioners in Florida, < no county _ The biggest upset occurred in Miami in 1949 when City Commissioner Leslie Quigg, up for re-election, led the ticket by what’ was called a “comfortable plurality” in the first primary and was defeated in the election In state politics, the biggest upset was in 1932 when John W. Martin led Dave Sholtz by 64,000 votes in the first primary and Sholtz, in the second primary, defeated | y Martin by 74,000 votes. The six nominees for the election next Tuesday are uware they must hustle to maintain their advantage, in the case of the leaders, and, in the case of other thre¢ nominees. strive to increase their standing. The nominees have many elements with which to contend. Many Key Westers remained away the polls till the “real fight” presented itself to them—the election. What is going to -happen to the 1,280 votes that the five defeated men received ? Every from in the primary? one of those voters, who cast their ‘ballots for three candi- dates, must pick a new third man for whom to vote, as- suming that all of them vote again, which is not likely to occur. Some, chagrinned by their favorites losing, will not so to the polls. But those voters are not the only voted Tuesday and won’t vote next Tuesday. That is a quirk of human nature about voters that politicians, voting has been going on in the United States, have not been able to determine. Indeed, nobody can put his fin- ver on the causes of the actions or reactions of voters gen- erally. The best attitude of a man running for office is not to be sure of anything regarding voters. He is fost, if he becomes over-confident. He should keep on pegging away, pegging away, in advocating his candidacy, till the polls ones who ever since close. In the election campaign, as proved true in the prim- ary, unquestionably the best way to reach the bulk of the voters is through the medium of The Citizen. As in the | primary, so in the election, The Citizen has no favorites. It’s policy now is as it always has been under its present. | ownership—fairness to all.
