ness for New York's At electoral
votes developed abruptly last
night, but President Roosevelt held
such commanding leads elsewhere
that democratic leaders already

tant pro-Willkie newspapers as the

Wendell L. Willkie, his republican

from more than half of the states
precincts.
Likewise, J. M. Broughton, the
democratic nominee for governor,
was far out in front Of Robert H.

Presidential Vote
The vote for president, with Is
electoral votes at stake, as report
ed from LII of 1916 precincts
was: Roosevelt 1856, 772, Willkie 49,
624.
For governor, 814 precincts gave
Broughton 249, 567 votes, Mcneil,
46,678.
In the returns most parts of the
state were represented. The reports
from the western counties w i tn
normally heavy republican votes
was scanty however, and there
was a possibility that the final re.
turns might cut into Broughton's
percentage.
But there was no indication that
the history Of 1928 would repeat
Itself, That year the democratic
candidate, Al Smith, piled up a
big lead in the early returns only
TO have it wiped out and turned
into a decisive majority for his
opponent Herbert Hoover, by the
later reports.

Gated that the democrats would re-
