Editorial Comment
The Dlgrat Poll
When the Literary Digest classifies
California and Nevada In the Landon
column, Its straw vote up to this
time on the presidential race cannot
be accepted seriously. Even the Re
publican national committed has re
luctantly conceded there la not a
ghost of a chance of Roosevelt losing
either California or Novada. In fact,
the professional gamblers In San
Francisco will wage even money that
the New Deal candidate's majority
In California will exceed 160,000 and
they'll accept reasonable odds that
his lead In this state win run better
than 200,000. If the poll In other
states Is as far off as It Is In Califor
nia and Nevada, one need not be sur
prised If Roosevelt sweeps every state
In the union, Including Kansas.
The complete registration figures
Just released for California show the
Democrats holding an edge of 636,
64a. It Is absurd to think that Lan
don can overcome such a handicap.
Only yesterday the Digest's vote for
Los Angeles was Roosevelt 6974. Lan
don 0068, or a margin of six votes
for Roosevelt. The final registration
figures for Los Angeles county gives
the Democratic party a margin ol
333,733, and yet the Digest tries to
indicate that Landon la running neck
and neck with Roosevelt I
Over In Nevada the Digest makes
Itself similarly ridiculous by claim
ing that state for Landon. The Ne
vada State Journal has been polling
Reno, where there are more Repub
licans than In anv otaer section of
the state, and the result has shown
a preponderance of sentiment for
Roosevelt.
The published returns from Cali
fornia and Nevada are silly enough
to discredit the entire Digest poll.
