Preceding Nominee Smith on the above itinerary went a mass of literature, sent out by the G. 0. P., to show that he had never been regarded by the New York farmers as an especial friend. The chief document was a map showing that, of New York's 57 rural counties (outside New York City) Governor Smith carried only two the first time he was elected, 13 the second time, one the third time, four the fourth time. New York City ("Tammany") was the only area he carried all four times.
