TUESDAY IS GENERAL ELECTION DAY,
The air will lie filled with political broadcast*
up until Monday night, with the Democrat* and
Republican*, as well at the several other party
leaders, trying to persuade the voters to favor
their party with their ballots.
This has been a slant-bang presidential race,
with few holds barred. Both President Truman
and Republican Nominee Dewey have made
vigorous campaigns Mr. Truman stated be felt
the election was won at Chicago Monday niftht,
while Dewey and his Republican spokesmen feel,
they say, that this is a Republican year and
that the election is "in the bag.''
Down here in Democratic Texan the Repub-
lican nominee for U. S. Senator, Jack Porter,
is making a very strong bid for votes, and will
received tens of thousands of votes from Demo-
crats who are not happy about Lyndon John-
son's nomination.
However, Texas went Republican in 1928,
when President Hoover carried this state . . .
and we don't think Texan* are ready to vote
Republican again.
IN SHACKKLKORD CO! \TY a litfht vote i an-
ticipated. Those Shackelford county people don't
met excited about elections. . . . Hut it would be a
wonderful thing if everyone voted.
W. I). Mac •on, county dork, rrport quitr ;i few
absentee IimIIoI^ arc being voted.
County Judge I. M. I'lii.-ni is ready for the election
in the ton county boxes. The commi.ssioner ' court
appointed election officials the first of the yeai to
hold the general election, and the judges have com-
pleted their crews.
TF.XAS WILL HAVE eight ch.nce. lo
■ mend its cn#i«tituion next Tue.day. The New,
can tee no objection to pai.ing all eight of the
amendments. If the voter will take time to
read and understand the amendments, we feel
that all will pass.
On another page the Albany News is carry-
inn • sample ballot, which will familiarize the
voter with the ballot before he Roes to vote.
The News urges you to read the amendments
at the bottom of the page, and be ready to vote
on them intelligently . . . and not vote against
amending the constitution just because we don't
like to change the document.
We are anxious that the second amendment
pass, which will guarantee that the state will
he redistricted regardless of what the legisla-
ture does. We are already nearly 20 years
behind in redistricting . . . just because the
legislators are afraid to redistrict. This would
change many of the districts, thus throwing
some of the representatives in new districts.
Our legislature, it seems, is also afraid of
change.
