It had been figured in North Caro lina that the religious issue would cost Kenendy the state. However, his marpin of victory in the Tar Heel state will be in the neighbee hood of 50,000 considerably mere than Eisenhower. In 1928, Former President Herbert Hoover carried North Carolina when he 'defeated Al Smith, a Catholic. Kenne-V is the first Catholic ever to win a presidential election in tee United States. He is the youngest President ever selected at 43 years nf aee. He is the second youngest President in History. Conversation across the State Wednesday centered around Gover nor Terry Sanford's choice of Ken nedy for the Democratic nomina tion when he did and at the time he did in Los Angeles.
