![["John Connally's presidential campaign will decline federal funds and rely on volunteer contributions. Connally believes that public financing of political campaigns limits free speech. He is gaining support in Iowa and Ohio, and is taking legal action to secure TV time for his campaign. In Dallas, some Democratic precinct chairmen have resigned to support Republican candidates. Campaign efforts are focused on media exposure and building a strong organization."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Paula%20Unruh%20Collection,%201964-2009/CAC_PP_075_1_2_3_0000%20%20-%20Connally,%20John-Campaign%20of%201980,%20undated,%201978-1980/Thumbnails/CAC_PP_075_1_2_3_0052_thumbnail.jpg "John Connally's 1979 Campaign for Republican Presidential Nomination: Voluntary Contributions and Decline of Federal Funds")
![["The Connally for President Committee will be hosting a nationwide television special called \"Freedom From Crisis\" on February 14, featuring Governor Connally and aimed at raising funds for the campaign. The special comes after a poll showed Connally's popularity increasing while Reagan's support decreased. Additionally, a poll in Texas showed Connally leading among Republicans, with the best chance of defeating Reagan and Carter in a head-to-head match. Supporters are encouraged to host home receptions to raise funds and show support for Connally."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Paula%20Unruh%20Collection,%201964-2009/CAC_PP_075_1_2_3_0000%20%20-%20Connally,%20John-Campaign%20of%201980,%20undated,%201978-1980/Thumbnails/CAC_PP_075_1_2_3_0057_thumbnail.jpg "John Connally's 1980 Presidential Campaign: A Nationwide Television Special and Polling Updates")
