EXPERT PREDICTIONS ON CAMPAIGN 76:
PRESIDENT: ROCKEFELLER EXPECTED TO WIN FULL FOUR-YEAR TERM
*Political analysts, experts and news contributors from CBS News, NBC News and ABC News including the Associated Press as well as Gallup held a roundtable discussion about the 1976 Presidential election; they also highlighted down-ballot elections such as key critical races for the United States Senate, US State Gubernatorial elections, etc.,
They all strongly predicted President Rockefeller to win a full four-year term against Governor Wallace by an overwhelming margin; while everyone was in agreement on Rockefeller winning, they debated on how big the margin of victory would look like.
