The Cost of the Vote

George Elmore and the Battle for the Ballot
On August 13, 1946, George Elmore arrived at his regular polling place in Columbia, South Carolina. He requested a ballot to vote in the Democratic Party primary but was turned away. In this book, Carolyn Click tells the story of Elmore and the activists and lawyers who successfully challenged the all-white primary in South Carolina.
One man's struggle for the ballot reveals the sacrifices of those who shaped the civil rights movement in the American South.
