Socialists Win Right For Vote On Ballot In State
North Carolinians may vote for socialist candidate Norman Thomas this fall after the state board of elections unanimously approved placing socialist electors on the ballot. A petition with over 10 000 signatures met election laws, while the Prohibition party petition with under 300 names was rejected and its electors will not be on the ballot. Alton A. Lawrence of the state socialist party predicted Thomas’s strong North Carolina showing could surprise many politicians.
