The Democratic Choice: Nixon for United States Senate, 1946-10-17
Scope and Contents
President Truman and Democratic Senator Sheridan Downey accuse Helen Douglas of not being a true Democrat due to her voting record, which they claim shows support for Communist interests. They criticize her for opposing aid to Greece and Turkey, voting against important security measures, and aligning with Communist sympathizers. They question her loyalty to the Democratic party and her ability to serve as a senator. They urge Democrats to vote for Richard Nixon, who they believe is a more qualified candidate.
