incomplete returns from all over the
state, received up to 1920, Charles
E. Hughes, republican candidate, Is
elected governor of New York over
William Randolph Hearst, the nom
inee of the democratic party and in
dependence league by approximately
a plurality of 10000. Two years ago
Governor Higgins was elected on the
republican ticket by 80,560. The ma,
jOrity this year is regarded as large.
There is some doubt expressed as
to the fate of the democratic and in
dependence league tickets outside OF
Hearst. several New York newspa-
pers which had been supporting
Hughes, declaring that there was a
chance that the subordinate officers
of the democratic and independence
league combination had been elected.
Latest figures seem to indicate that
Hughes plurality above the Bronx
exceeds $4,000. To offset this
Hearst's plurality in greater New
York is probably $4,000 to 100000
In Brooklyn, where Senator H. Nc
Carren made fight against Hearst,
the latter carried the borough by
small plurality, probably 1000. At
one time it seemed that Hughes was
successful in Brooklyn but late re-
turns all strongly favored the demo
cratic candidates.
Hearst was given a majority of
10000 in Manhatten and the Bronx,
Queens county, which includes Long
Island city, has gone for Hearst by
5000 to 5000 and Richmond, Staten
island, also gives the democratic can
didate a plurality.
1t was generally expected that
Hearst showed his greatest strength
in the cities throughout the state and
took out of the republican column a
number of the more important mu-
inequalities. Among the cities which
gave Hearst pluralities were Buffalo,
Rochester Utica, Troy, Elmira, Rome,
Little Falls and Jamestown.
Hughes did not gain a single city
The republican ticket was successful
but sustained serious losses in SYRIA
cuse, GIoversville, Amsterdam Ithaca,
Schenectady, WATERFOWL and PlatIs-
burg. Great interest centered in
New York in the campaign waged for
the judiciary ticket named by the
committee of lawyers, headed by Jo-
seph H. Choate and former Judge AL
ton B. Parker. Tammany and the in
dependence league joint ticket won
over the nOn-partisan candidates by
big pluralities.
State Senator Thomas F. Grady
Tammany hall, has been reelected.
In Schenectady, one of the best or
ganized labor cities ia the United
States, it was expected that Hearst
would have substantial plurality,
but the republican ticket was success
full by Ala votes as against Higgins
plurality of 1872 two years ago.
While both the state senate and as
=ASnbly will be strongly republican,
democrats are claiming they have
made gains. The complexion of the
New York congressional delegation, it
is believed, will undego out slight
change if any.
