Caroline and Erwin Swann; The debate over direct primaries dominated William Sulzer's term as Governor of New York. Before direct primaries were instituted, candidates were nominated through congressional and legislative caucuses, thus excluding registered party voters from participating in the nominating process. Sulzer's support for the direct primary infuriated Tammany officials who opposed the measure. Lambdin shows Sulzer with Hearst and Roosevelt, prominent figures whom Sulzer recruited to show public support for his direct primary bill.
