Allan Shivers "bolted his party" (Democratic) for Dwight D. Eisenhower in the 1952 presidential election. The Governor states that can not think of a Democrat nominee that would be acceptable for the 1956 presidential election. During the last delegation in Texas, Shivers lost control of the Democratic party in Texas against his rivals; Lyndon B. Johnson and Samuel Rayburn.
This demonstrates the tensions of the Democratic Party in Texas after the 1952 presidential election. - Subject
