Polls 28 Counties
“Well,” said the old lady, “think of the reputation I would have had if it had snowed.” Mr. Hurja's turrent method - of arriving at a forecast consists of polling 28 counties (out of the country’s 3060) which have perfect records on presidential elections for "11 consecutive times—since 1900. If his poll of these counties is correct, Mr, Hurja contends, Governor Dewey should win by at least a 2,000,000 majority. The poll indicates that Repub{licans have enjoyed a 7.1 per cent increase in pqpularity since 1940; Mr. Hurja estimated, His “key” counties include Penn{sylvania, Fayette; Maryland, Fred‘erick and Washington; West Virginia; Berkeley, Marion and Wood; Indiana, Gibson and Vanderburgh; Ohio, Belmont and Ross; Califor nia, San Joaqin and Sutter.
