Scope and content
Governor Albert D. Rosellini and his three daughters (l to r) Lynn, Janey, and Sue Ann were all ready in July of 1964 to go doorbell ringing with other Democratic candidates in the 29th District. He was seeking a third term as governor. Despite Lyndon Johnson's national landslide, the Republicans captured Washington's governor's office when Dan Evans, an engineer and Republican State House Leader, ran a strong campaign to unseat the incumbent. Mr. Rosellini entered the King County Executive race in 1969 and challenged Mr. Evans' bid for an unprecedented third consecutive term in 1972, but he was unsuccessful in both attempts. After his retirement from politics, Governor Rosellini resumed his former occupation of attorney. ALBUM 10. (TNT 7-19-64, p. 2)
