Because of the sharp attacks on Nixon in the primary by
Shell and his followers, all voter opinion polls in California showed
that Nixon started the fall campaign somewhere between 5 and 10 points
behind Brown.
As of three weeks before the election, all these polls
show Nixon and Brown neck and Neck - with Nixon's stock steadily
rising and Brown's steadily falling.
Since the polls measure preference of all registered voters
(not just those who will actually vote on November 6) and since the
Democratic vote turnout on election day is always at least 3% and
usually 5% - 7% lower than Republican turnout - an even race in the
opinion polls would indicate a Nixon victory by a minimum of 135,000
(3% of 4,500,000).
Every indicator shows that the Nixon campaign is continuing
to gain and Brown continuing to lose. Brown forces counted on the
JFK visit to vitalize the extremely low morale and interest of their
workers and voters. Without this visit, they are in even deeper
trouble.
Private telephone poll by Nixon organization (by same process
which proved to be precisely accurate in 1960) has now completed
60,661 calls to Democrats in Southern California. 19.1% of these
Democrats are firmly for Nixon and an additional 22.6% are undecided
between Nixon and Brown. Nixon only needs 16% of the Democratic vote
- 2 -
to win; on an even split of the undecided, he would get over 30%.
In Northern California, 116,986 calls have been completed. 10.6%
of these Democrats are for Nixon and 20.2% are undecided. With an
even split of the undecided, Nixon would get over 20%.
Thus, while Nixon only needs 16% of the total statewide
Democratic vote, it now appears that he will receive about 25% or
a little more. This percentage is moving steadily upward as more
calls are completed -- it was 22% a week ago.
Nixon's Republican vote solidified at 91% several weeks ago
and has stayed there ever since.

In a note just received from Bernie Weinberg
he asks if RN would like to take time for a golf game.
If so, this might take care of the fact Bernie was not
included in the receptions.
August 23, 1962
Dear Bernie:
Thanks very much for sending
along the LIFE memo.
I'll certainly ask Dick
about the golf date, and am sure he'll
appreciate your thoughtfulness.
We'll see if we can't work something
out.
Best regards.
Sincerely,
H. R. Haldeman
