“vote for the right man”
One hundred years ago today … Emma Parker and Harry Jay wrote a song encouraging people to vote in the 1920 presidential election. Parker published it herself in Staten Island.
Library of Congress.
In a bid for ubiquity, the lyrics do not mention any candidate by name, nor any specific political angle. This is not a campaign song.
