NYT Journalist Maggie Haberman Weighs In on Trump’s White House, Democratic Strategy at Harvard Talk
The mock ballot for presidential candidates closed last evening at 6 o'clock. The vote was unexpectedly large and gives a clear idea of the opinion of Harvard students. The overwhelming victory for McKinley was in a measure expected, and the chief surprise was that Palmer should have secured so much larger a vote than Bryan. It is also interesting to observe that Massachusetts cast more than half of the total number of votes, and that Bryan secured as large a proportion of votes in this state as in any other. The vote of the day was 462, a slight falling off from the vote of the first two days. The totals were:
McKinley and Hobart, 1489
Palmer and Buckner, 327
Bryan and Sewall, 108
Lovering and Johnson, 2
Total number of votes cast, 1919
