ELECTION IN MADISON
ABOUT AS EXPECTED
The election Tuesday was
more overwhelming than even
the most ardent admirers of
the New Deal even dared to
hope. President Roosevelt
won 523 of the 531 elector
al votes, leaving only 8 for
Landon. It is said to have
been the nearest to a unani
mous vote since 1820, when
James Monroe was re-elected
with only one vote against
him. Even the State of Kan
sas, Governor Landon's own
state, voted about 50,000
majority for Roosevelt.
The State of North Caro
lina remained true to hatory,
piling up tremendous majori
ties) for democrats except in
a few counties. Hoey was
elected Governor over Gris
som by a large majority and
Mr. Edney suffered a much
worse defeat in this elect.on
v,ti he did two years ago
It appears that the five
amendments to the woi
rarnlma Constitution were
oil carried. However, this 18
