DEMOCRATIC E'ec
Total 80.
DOUBTFUL STAT s,


The number of electoral votes neces-
sary to choice is pol. The Democratic
column in the above table has l53vOtes,
or As less than the number required to
elect The Republican column has lS2
votes, or 10 less than the number re-
Qured to elect. The successful candi-
date must make up his deficiency from
the four doubtful States, viz: New
York, with SO votes; New Jersey, with
9; Connecticut, with g. and Indiana,
with Is. 1t appears from this that New
York is absolutely indispensable to the
Democrats. If they carry the other
three doubtful States and lose New
York, the battle is against them. In
this sense New York may be said to be
the pivotal Stale. But it is not indis-
pensable to Republican success. We
can give New York to the Democrats,
and still elect the Republican candidates.
We can throw in Connecticut and still
have five more electoral votes than are
necessary to elect. Or instead of Con-
necticut, we can give the Democrats
New Jersey with New York, and still
have margin Of two votes more than
are needed.
There is a splendid feeling among Re-
publicans, and with a good ticket there
will be little danger of defeat.
