 Johnson continued to hold his two to one lead over Senator LaFollette whose name had been written in on many ballots as the result of a stick CT campaign launched in the closing hours of the campaign.
 The Johnson headquarters issued this statement:
 "Coolidge's lead at this time is much less than we expected, The big surprise of the election is the strong anti-Coolidge vote which indi- cates that Coolidge boiled less than half the usual conservative vote in the conservative strongholds.
 "The final result depends entirely upon the manner in which LaFollette cuts into the Johnson vote in tho progressive strongholds which are mostly unheard from at this time"
