UVALDE Nov 6 John Nance Garner did not vote in the election and said he would decide tomorrow whether to return to Washington for the remainder of the congressional session.

Mrs Garner and Secretary Louis Friday joined about a thousand local residents who voted yesterday. The county reported Garner leading Roosevelt by about four to one in incomplete returns. Garner has been out of Washington for weeks, last visiting in July, and described as delaying his political plans. The Garners retired early as a quiet election night contrasted with past campaigns.
