Primaries: Eisenhower - Kefauver Win In New Hampshire. Straws in the political wind from the Granite State! After weeks of campaigning and listening, the voters go to the polls on town meeting day. Their choices - Gen. Eisenhower over Taft and other GOP hopefuls, and Senator Kefauver winning a resounding victory over Pres. Truman. High angle shot of small town/small city, 1950s traffic driving along street. Truman headquarters. Signs for candidates Eisenhower, Kefauver and Taft. Robert Taft arrives somewhere. Harold E. Stassen at press conference. Nice small town shot - Post Office, Hopkinton, NH. Street signs giving distances to various locations. Elderly citizens walk along snowy roads to vote in the primary election. Various shots voters waiting in line, getting ballots, ballot into ballot box. Large photo poster of Dwight Eisenhower. Estes Kefauver (?) shakes hands with an orderly queue of well-wishers. Snowy New England scene with white church (sadly telephone pole and wires in fg).
