From an
interview with James Graham, Lake Midway
Q.What do you remember about elections?
A.Seeing three or four people intoxicated probably. This always seemed
to happen back when I was a younger fella. They, the different parties had
a, and a lot of people, some of them, they wouldn’t go vote unless they could
get a pint or something. Some women wouldn’t go with out a box of chocolates
so a lot of the fellas that wanted a pint, they’d get intoxicated or partly
intoxicated and probably get in an argument over who was going to win, who
should win. That, I was never much enthused over politics. I’ve always voted
but that’s as far as it went. I didn’t want no part of it because it’s a mixed
up game and I think still today that most of them are there for what money
they can make and not for the good of the people.
