presidential preference results
With so much voting strength thus on the block from
late winter to late June next year, it seems a reasonable
guess the Democrats’ presidential nominee will be chosen
before the convention ever assembles in early July
Since predetermined results have been common in
both parties for years, this would not be new The thing
is, the Democrats’ heralded reforms, however admira
ble, are not likely to change the pattern
What will change is cost. Reform is going to be very
expensive And the party today appears only dimly

WASHINGTON (NEA.
The Democrats' proudly adopted reforms widening
participation in the 1972 presidential nominating process
may boom candidates' campaign costs to new heights.
Money could be the great eliminator next year. The
party wiU have more choosers (delegates to the national
convention), but their choices for the presidency could
be narrower than ever.
Reasonably authoritative minimum figures soon to be
published indicate that President Nixon and Demo-
cratic contender Eugene McCarthy each spent at least
$10 million in their 1968 preconvention campaigns.
Those estimates suggest that recently printed guesses
of $10 million for each major contender in 1971-72 are
probably much too conservative It could be that 412 mil-
lion a is better minimum estimate Why’ First off. the
“reform” which enlarged the 1972 convention delegate
vote total to 3,016 from 2,622 in 1968 has sharply hiked the
stakes for presidential bidders in key primaries, espe- *
cially since the big states will have a higher proportion of
the total
California will have 271 against 174 in 1968. New York
278 against 190, Massachusetts 102 against 72, Wisconsin
67 against 59.
These rich prizes inevitably must be quested after by
any serious candidate. Sen George McGovern, declared
contender, says no bidder will have enough money for
the costly June tests in California and New York unless
he has done well in earlier primaries
Another dimension of the money matter is the addition
of Rhode Island, Maryland and New Mexico to the 1972
primary roster. The total of 19 states may be further
enlarged by possible new primaries in Arkansas, North
Carolina and one or two others
The fresh burdens mount still further Among the non-
primary states where delegate selection is most often by
state convention, Michigan’s vote total has soared to
132 from a previous 96, the Texas total to 130 from 104.
Missouri’s to 73 from 60. Minnesota s to 64 from 52
There are many other healthy gains ,
Candidates’ foraging for delegates in these states is
bound to be more expensive than ever, partly because
of the higher numbers, partly because delegate selection
processes—assuming reforms are widely adopted—will
be more open and hence far chancier
Primaries are an unavoidable lure not simply in con-
sequence of the fatter numbers, but because delegates
are bound to support the winners in California, Indiana
Maryland, Massachusetts, New Mexico, Oregon, and
Wisconsin The statewide winner takes the whole bag of
votes in California, Massachusetts and Oregon
A winner who swept everything in the seven binding
primaries could lock up 621 votes, not much less than
half the 1,509 he will need for nomination in 1972
Moreover, in primaries with a total of 416 votes—Penn
sylvania (1821, Ohio (153), Nebraska (241. Rhode Island
(22), New Hampshire (18» and South Dakota (17)—dele-
gates can legally bind themselves to a particular candi
date if they wish If they win, he has them
There are also big advisory primaries in Illinois (170
votes), New Jersey (109) and West Virginia (35), where-
in delegates are not bound but may be influenced by
