Taft's Illinois Victory All But Clinches 200 Convention Delegates Or More
BY LYLE C. WILSON UP Staff Correspondent
A bare majority of 603 delegates is sufficient to nominate a Republican presidential candidate.
Washington—(U.P.)-Sen. Robert A. Taft's presidential primary victory in Illinois practically guaranteed today that he will have more than 200 Republican national convention delegates by month's end.
Senator Taft apparently won 48 of Illinois' 50 district delegates, raising his total to 179 so far. His chance of taking the 10 Illinois delegates-at-large to be selected later was considered to be excellent.
Harold E. Stassen's presidential stock slumped again on Illinois returns. The delegates credited to him prior to the Illinois primary were won in Wisconsin despite a spectacular Eisenhower write-in vote which made that polling a real victory for the general.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower was not entered in the Illinois primary, but may take the other two delegates to raise his total to 71.
There was some write-in for Eisenhower in Illinois. But there was nothing to detract from Taft's big victory,
Sen. Estes Kefauver's fat vote in the Democratic primary did not greatly impress political observers for lack of any opposition. There was a write-in trickle for Gov. Adalai E. Stevenson.
It is the delegates who count in Illinois. The popular vote indicates the favor of the voters. But the delegates are elected separately and are not pledged. The Illinois Democratic organization has been counted as under such conditions. Under such conditions his popular poll would not mean much,
Selection of delegates so far shows Senator Taft strongest outside the East, Light western, mid-western and border state have supplied nearly 140 of his delegates to date.
With 10 Illinois delegates-atlarge Senator Taft will have 189 all told according to a United Press compilation. Four more primaries are scheduled for April: New Jersey, April 15; Pennsylvania and New York, April 22; Massachusetts, April 29. Kentucky selects delegates by convention vote April 12. There is great Eisenhower sentiment in those eastern states but from them Taft managers are confident they will pick up delegates sufficient to raise their total above 200.
