HE SOLICITS YOUR SUPPORT ON HIS RECORD OF PUBLIC SERVICE
TO THE THOUGHTFUL VOTERS
I am one of the candidates for Governor of Georgia,
set forth the following reasons why. In my
opinion, I am the proper one for you to vote for—
1. My appeal is to the thoughtful and quiet voters.
I realize that they will determine the election.
2. I am the only veteran in this race. I have had
the experiences of the average Georgia boy that
soldiered in two wars. The experiences of members
of the armed forces are built on serious conditions
and their experiences are more broadening and de
veloping than that of the man who stayed at home
and did well for himself In this world’s goods. We
had to go wherever orders carried us. Those three
glamor boys who are running against me never had
to sleep anywhere except of their own choosing all
during those hazardous war years. They never sail
ed the seven seas in the name of democracy, never
went through sub-infested waters, never stepped into
the uncertainty of war. They never had a hazardous
task to perform.
Sincerely yours,
Hoke O’Kelley.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY

YOUR VOTE AND SUPPORT WILL BE APPRECIATED
3. In seeking election they are spending more than
the salary of the Governor amounts to in 50 years.
Three Governors are fighting for the control of our
state, and each one has help from powerful groups
that do not mind spending a fortune to obtain the
hold they want on our state. How could a prudent
and careful voter see fit to give them their vote?
4. By giving me your vote you place it in support
of a man that believes in and highly values free votes.
5. The finest gift you could give to your soldier or
sailor son is proof that a veteran can be elected Gov
ernor without having to be rich or without having
to seek the aid of rich men and them.
6. No governor should be allowed to pick his own
successor. Let him keep his office and records in
such shape that he is willing to turn them over to
whomever the qualified voters select on their own.
7. Those three Governors have held the office for
the last 14 years between them. We have paid them
$25 per day for 14 years. I consider that we have
paid them in full.
