It could have been yours, or it might be yours November November 4. Thomas Jefferson, for instance, was elected president by one vote in the electoral 11 _ n _ i ^ uuiiege. est) was jonn yuincy Adams. Rutherford B. Hayes was 1 elected president by one vote. 1 His election was contested, and it was referred to an electoral commission. Again, he won bv a single vote. One vote gave statehood to ! California, Idaho, Oregon. Texas and Washington. Coming closer to the present, the draft act of World War II passed the House by one vote. Today many more important issues are nassed bv slim margins. But just four years ago in the 1948 presidential election less than one-half of the eligible voters in the country turned out to vote. This type of complacency can prove fatal to a country like ours, a country which has always had the right of free choice. Fortunately it looks as if there has been a greater interest in local, state and national government issue during the past four years. This enthusiasm should bring new millions to the polls.
