There’s more to an election than simply a discussion of issues; it is also about winning the hearts of the voters themselves. While issues are certainly important, many historic Presidential campaigns went a step further to leave an impression on the voting public. From a catchy slogan to the unusual shower head nozzle, presidential hopefuls over the years found exciting and fun ways to remain memorable to their potential supporters. In March Steve Mihaly, historian and avid collector of Presidential artifacts, will deliver an informative program on this fascinating aspect of political history. As part of his program, Steve will display several authentic artifacts from previous Presidential elections.
Note: Election of two new WJHHS Board members will precede the program.
