Who controls the city elections?

Item Info

Title:
Who controls the city elections?
Date:
May 1963
Description:

  • Leaflet for James R. Hawkins, who is running for a position on the Durham City Council, claiming that "the negro population in Durham pays 1/12th of the taxes in the city of Durham, yet by the use of the bloc vote they have, with few exceptions, determined who has served on the city council for the past 20 years. The result is that the minority controls the majority. I don't believe you want this."
