Convention

In marked contrast to the Democratic convention, the Republican convention in Rochester on September 28 was considered the most raucous for that party since 1910, when Theodore Roosevelt led a progressive revolt. The early focus of the convention was on the race for Governor, where Robert Moses won a hard-fought three-ballot struggle.[2] After this, several other nominations were completed without opposition. After a recess of ten minutes, the Senate contest began; it quickly devolved to a contest by the delegates to find a man willing to join Moses's ticket.[3]

First, Harold Riegelman nominated William M. Chadbourne for Senate; his nomination was seconded by William T. Simpson and Hamilton Fish III.[3] Then, William D. Thomas nominated E. Harold Cluett; his nomination was seconded by Philip Elling of Ulster County and Frank L. Wiswall of Albany.[3] Chadbourne ultimately declined to run, announcing his preference that another man should be nominated; Cluett was then nominated by acclamation, though some delegates attempted to humorously vote for candidates who were not in nomination.[2][3] Cluett made a brief acceptance speech, pledging to give all his time and effort to the campaign.[3]
