"Recent Trends Among Negro Voters in Los Angeles", November 5, 1960

1960-11-05

1960-1969

This analysis focuses on the voting trend of African Americans in Los Angeles during the 1960 presidential election, discussing factors influencing their choices. The majority favored John F. Kennedy due to his stance on civil rights and concern for their community, while Richard Nixon's experience and anti-communist stance attracted some support. The impact of vice presidential candidates and issues like civil rights legislation are considered, with predictions indicating a close margin but a Kennedy victory in California. 3 pages.
