MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, JJLY 26. 1940. Meteorological Report NOT YET SETTLED, IS SHOWN BY POLL Fortune Magazine Finds Willkie Favorite in North East and Mid-West States Br Lyle C. Wilson UP Staff Correspondent Washington, July 26. (U.PJ The independent vote with vari able party tie will determine the presidential election contest between Franklin D. Roosevelt and Wendell L. Willkie, but has not yet made its choice, the first of the post-national convention polls indicated today. The magazine Fortune re ported that Willkie, Republican presidential candidate, was a substantial favorite over Presl dent Roosevelt in northern, east ern, mid-western and scattered states which combine to cast a preponderance of electoral col lege votes. Undecided Hold Pow.r Mr. Mr. Roosevelt won 44.3 per cent of the nationwide ex pression of favor in the Fortune poll he was high in the south to 40.8 per cent for Willkie. Of the remainder, eight per cent preferred other candidates, re fused to answer or said they would not vote and 6.9 per cent were undecided. That 6.9 of in decision would be enough to win for either candidate. The president piled up big margins of favor in south At lantic states, the east south cen tral and west south central areas. He tied with Willkie in the mountain states poll and trailed the Republican nominee else where in states with an aggre gate electoral vote majority. Fortune reported that analysis of. the poll revealed Willkie weakness among farmers and labor and suggested that it might develop disastrously for the G. O. P. ticket, but concluded that the "I Don't Know" vote still holds the 1940 balance of power. Radio Highlights By Associated Press (Time is Pacific Standard) Mew York, July 26.
