Seth Low writes President Roosevelt about the possibility of Low’s being renominated for mayor of New York. While no mayor has yet been re-elected, except for non-consecutive terms, Low believes that a strong fusion ticket might be nominated, and if that were so, the possibility of winning the election would be in reach.
