ELECTION TUESDAY
Today is the last day before the
1936 General Territorial Election
tomorrow, Tuesday, September 8.
All of the legislative candidat
es are well known to all Nomeit
es and most of the territorial
candidates are likewise known,
so that it is not necessary for the
Nugget to desc ibe each person
running for office. Their names
appear in the party tickets on
page one.
There are also independent can
didates running for territorial and
legislative offices and their nam
es have appeared from time to
time and are on the sample ballots
as well as on the official.
Political campaigning has gone
On during the past two months
with increasing activity and en
thusiasm. We now approach the
day of reckoning—When the
fruits of efforts made will be
come certain knowledge.
Of particular, and noteworthy
evidence is the movement made
undertaken by both Republicans
and Democrats in the Second Div
ision, stressing the importance of
trend of national politics.
One party contends that the
trend is toward Republican nom
inee Alf M. Landon of Kansas,
and the Republican Party, and
the other organization insists
that the national political pict
ure will remain Democratic, for
President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Whichever way you like to
take it. the national picture has
been used as a strong argument
for Alaska politics.
In view of many political act
ivities carried on recently, it is
expected that Nome will record
a larger vote than for many
years past.
However, don't depend on the
other fellow swelling the vote—
every qualified voter should con
sider it his special duty to go to
the polling place tomorrow and
cast his or her ballot.
We have often stressed the im
portance of Nome registering a
large vote. Many persons in oth
er parts of Alaska believe there
are only a couple of hundred
people in Nome. When Nome
petitions for relief money for
those who are without jobs or
have no way of subsisting, there
should be a more favorable out
look than a small minority of
the population to refer to when
investigating figures.
That is only one instance. There
are others. But meanwhile, do
not forget to cast your ballot in
the election tomorrow. Get busy.
Bring your neighbors and tell
them to bring voters to the polls,
to cast a record vote for Nome.
