But there is still one aspect of
the electoral machinery in the
United States which is sadly in
need of updating. This is the pro-
cess OF nominating the major party
candidates for the nations highest
office, the presidency.
Only 10 of the 48 states hold
any kind of presidential primaries
or elect delegates to the national
conventions by primaries. Only %
OF the SO state delegations to the
two conventions next year will be
elected through party primaries
according to a survey by Congress-
Slonal Quarterly. The rest will be
chosen by state or district con-
ventions, or in five cases by party
committees.
The individual voter should have
more voice in the selection of
presidential nominees. There will
be some talk of this next year. a
presidential election year. But
that will be too late to improve
the situation for 1856. Even now
is too late in most states. Never
theless, some states could yet set
legislative study commissions to
working on presidential primary
avs for adoption in the sessions
of 1857.
