Candidate strength is 8 function of three different factors: 1) Popularity with tho rank and file of the party, 2) strength with the leaders of the party machinery, and ability to draw support from Independent voters and to attract votes from the opposition party. In a special Institute poll in April of thu "grass roots" leaders of tho Democratic party, the County Chairmen, Stevenson was named tho top favorite by 29 per cent, compared to 21 per cent for Kefauver, 12 per cont for Senator Symington and 8 per cent for Harriman.
