LOC Title
No vote. D.C. ballot boxes draped in black. Washington, D.C., Nov. 8. Election day was just another day for voteless District of Columbia. To impress upon Washingtonians what they are missing ballot boxes draped in black were places on the busiest corners of downtown. Members of the District League of Women's Voters attended the boxes but instead of receiving votes they handed out information on what it means to the citizens of Washington not to be able to vote. Left to right we see--Mrs.. Karl Bradford, Mrs. R. Shull, and Mrs. Henry Chalmers, 11/8/38
