entire Democratic ticket in Virginia
was swept to victory by the lightest
general election vote tabulated in
years.
The election was featured by the
strength shown by one Republican
candidate, John NJ. Bassett of Bassett
for State treasurer. Late returns,
however seemed to indicate the return
of John NJ. Purcell, Democratic in
cumbent, despite an eleventh hour at
tack on him, injecting the religious
issue into his campaign. Early today
his majority was nearly $4,000 votes
and steadily increasing as outlying
precincts We're heard from.
Harry T. Byrds lead over S. Harris
Hoge of Roanoke, for governor, with
two of ten districts complete, with
partial returns from the others, was
$4,000. His own district, the seventh,
gave him an unprecedented majority
of 10000 votes
Other Democratic nominees followed
close behind their leader with the eX-
Ception of Purcell, who trailed the
ticket.
Latest available figures gave Byrd
