Summary[edit]

Description
English: A broadside urging "The White Women of Kentucky" to vote and offset the Republican bloc of African-Americans who had already registered for the vote. This might have been a part of a campaign undertaken by Mrs. Herbert T. Ottenheim of Louisville, Kentucky who was president of the Kentucky League of Women Voters in 1922. See more on this in George Wright's A History of Blacks in Kentucky: In pursuit of equality, 1890-1980 (page 98), page 5 of the Chicago Daily Illini (Nov. 6, 1922), and the Louisville Courier-Journal (Nov. 6-7, 1922).
Date perhaps circa November 1922
