Mr. Davis Goes
to Washington
Mr. Leonard Davis represented
Rochester and the Minnesota Education Associations at a Salary
School sponsored by the office of
Professional Development and
Welfare of the National Education Association. This school was
held on October 31, through November 2, in Washington, D. C.
At the first session, Clarice

and Dr. Walter Hellar, Chairman
of the Department of Economics
at the University of Minnesota

A mock election was held here at the Rochester Junior College
op November 8th, while millions, nation-wide, made their way to the
polls. According to the R.J.C. results, the Republicans should have
made a "clean sweep" in Minnesota.
The following are the results of the mock election: out of a
possible 329 votes on the presidential ballot, John F. Kennedy and
Lyndon B. Johnson polled 132 votes, while Richard M. Nixon and
Henry Cabot Lodge pulled in 197; in the run for the Minnesota Governorship, the students cast 198 votes for Elmer L. Anderson and 130
for Orville L. Freeman. P. Kenneth Peterson took the United States
Senatorial seat with 170 ballots cast his way, compared to 157 for
Hubert H. Humphrey; and Albert H. Quie won a landslide of 238
votes to George Shepherd's 90 votes.
J.C. students predicted only
50% of the candidates correctly,
however. Even the state of Minnesota didn't follow an entirely
Republican course. As the actual
results have since been disclosed,
Kennedy and Johnson, Anderson,
Humphrey and Quie were the victors of the official election. Both
the Presidency and Senatorial positions were filled by Democrats.
In the most important race, the
Presidency, Rochester Junior College polled 60% of their votes
for Nixon-Lodge, and 40% for
Kennedy-Johnson. However, Minnesota's' majority of 50.2% went
to the Democrats, while the
Republicans took 49.8% of the
ballots.
Anderson received the majority of votes in both college and
state. J.C. gave him a 60%
lead over Freeman's 40%, while
the state percentage was much
closer with about 51% for An-
