Interview with A. Linwood Holton
(WSLS Television, Roanoke, VA)

Roanoke attorney A. Linwood Holton spoke about the upcoming 1968 election. He expected Wallace's supporters would soon realize that the real choice in November would be between Nixon and Humphrey. He admonished them not to vote for Wallace because it would strengthen Humphrey's bid for the White House at Nixon's expense. Holton claimed that Nixon could win the important big city vote in Virginia with strong support from both whites and blacks, particularly in Richmond, the Tidewater area, and the suburbs of Washington.
