DOUGLAS DAILY DISPATCH, TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 2, 1926
The item forecasts a record breaking vote for an off-year election in each of the states and sets out what is at stake in Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. Voters are to pass on a governor's administration in Wyoming, on repeal of the state prohibition law in Montana, on a successor to a senator and the prohibition question in Colorado, on a state administration and a congressman in New Mexico, and in Arizona on a senatorial contest and on a constitutional amendment barring any state officer from seeking reelection after two terms in any office.
An election-day survey of the contests before voters in Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona.
record breaking vote for an off-year election is forecast in each of the states.
Wyoming's electors are called to give their opinions on the administratration of Governor Nelie Taylor Ross, democrat, in the first woman suffrage state. Her sponsors and party predict an overwhelming vote of approval. She is opposed by Frank Emerson, state engineer and republican party leader.
Montana, casting its vote on the question of repeal of the state prohihibition law can devote the day to that particular measure as but two state officials, in addition to two congressmen, are to be chosen.
Colorado besides naming a successor to Senator Rice W. Means, republica, will choose four congressmen, a complete state ticket and likewise will vote on the prohibition question. An intensive campaign for and against the dry measure has been waged by the Colorado chapter of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment and the Anti-Saloon league.
New Mexico's voters will be called upon to choose a state administration and a congressman.
In Arizona the request of Governor G. W. P. Hunt, democrat, for a sixth term in office has been overshadowed by the senatorial investigation brought to a head by charges of Senator Ralph H. Cameron, republican, who is opposed by Congressman Carl Hayden, democrat. Hunt's candidacy has another blow aimed at that in a constitutional amendment prohibiting any state officer from seeking re-election after having two terms in any office which is up for approval.
