Often at election time, we get all stirred up over persons run-
ning for office. Next Tuesday, we have the opportunity and duty
to vote for something that is bigger and mare important to
Clinch County anfl Georgia than any candidate for any office.
The people of Georgia are to vote on whether ar not to extend
the COUNTY-UNIT SYSTEM to the General Election.
NOTHING NEW. For many years Georgians:have been elect-
ing their state officials under the County Unit System in their
Democratic Party Primaries, which is equivalent to electjon. In
recent years, growing concentrations of people in big cities have
resulted in more and more huge "block voting." Threats are being
heard that these multitudes of block voters in the big cities are
going to use the General Election to overcome the primary elec-
tion, elect their big city candidate, and thus destroy the influ-
ence of small counties in our state government.
PROTECTING SMALL COUNTIES. The little counties have
a real voice in saying who is elected in the Primary election, be-
cause the County Unit System tends to equalize the influence
and voting power between little and large counties. Thus, neither
can successfully dominate the state government through the use
of overwhelming vote power. Contrary to what County Unit
opponents say, the County Unit System does not give domination
to little counties because, as we all know, some of them vote one
way and some theother way. It does, however, discourage radi-
cals from running for high office and organizing block-voting,
political machines in big cities for use in state races. Because
of all this, some of our REAL Georgia leaders have proposed
to extend the County Unit System to the General Election. This
will close the door to radicals and outside influences which would
try to dominate the state government by stirring up these masses
of city voters. If the 'County Unit System is good enough for the
Primary election, then it should be good enough for the General
Election. Why all the agitation in Atlanta against iL? Who is
behind it?
" the eight big city counties have only 6 unit votes each. When a
candidate carries a county, he gets all its unit votes. In this way,
and °nly in thLis way' a rural c°unty can effectively express its
political will and influence. Had you rather have the "bi city
method" all other states have?

THE MOST DEMOCRATIC METHOD. If you will sit down
and think it out, you will find that Georgia has the most demo-
cratic method of electing state officials of any state in the union.
The County Unit System literally breaks up any organized ef-
fort to control elections from big cities. In New York state, a can-
didate MUST carry New York City to win, as it is almost impos-
sible to get enough majority in the rest of the state to overcome
the ta'emendous city vote. The same is true of Illinois and Chica-
go, Pennsylvania and its cities, and other states. IN GEORGIA
WE HAVE NO SUCH PROBLEM. The County Unit System
makes the votes of a little county like Clinch very important to
any candidate .running for office. He can win WITH OR
WITHOUT the city vote. In Georgia, the little counties each
have 2 Unit Votes, middle size counties 4 Unit Votes each, and
