ton citizens are as completely dis
franchised as if they were inmates
of a penitentiary. Strange as it
may seem, they have representa
tion in the Democratic and Repub
lican national conventions, but no
representation in the electoral col
lege. They have a voice in nomin
ating Presidential candidates but
no vote when it comes to electing
a President.
One of the early slogans of the
American people was “taxation
without representation is tyran
ny.” Washington citizens are
taxed by a Congress in which they
have no representation. They have
no voice in either local or national
government.
