Description
Harold E. Stassen, former Governor of Minnesota, at a press conference at the Statler Hotel where he predicted "a wide open race" for the 1948 Republican Presidential nomination and said he would enter the Wisconsin GOP primary in April. Stassen, the only avowed GOP Presidential candidate, told a news conference he believed that as of that time no Republican had the nomination in hand. From: Beth Gore
