WASHINGTON
October 21, 1969
MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
The Camp David political group met for breakfast at
7:30 a.m. Tuesday in the Roosevelt Room. Reports were
given on the New Jersey and Virginia Gubernatorial races.
Concern was expressed that Congressman Cahill's attitude
has not been good in trying to get his fellow Congressmen
in New Jersey to work for him. Congressman Ford is going
to call the New Jersey group together today.
Bob Wilson reported that a recent poll in San Diego shows
that Senator Murphy would get most of the Republican votes
and one-third of the Democrat votes for re-election and
that Governor Reagan would get twice as many Democrat votes
as Unruh.
This sparked very strong comments by Tower, Morton and
Wilson to the effect that full backing should be given to
Senator Murphy. (I have talked to Morton in accordance
with a conversation I had with Haldeman. He reported back
to me the other day that he has run into a brick wall on
the possibility of a withdrawal and substitution in this
race).
Chairman Morton emphasized the importance of having Rumsfeld
publicly endorse Dr. Crane. Rumsfeld has said his people
are working for Dr. Crane, but he has not yet committed
himself on what he will do other than voting for Crane.
