Happy Election Day! Here is a view from November 3, 1970, and a candid shot of Governor McCall and family leaving their polling place at Garfield School in Salem after a family voting session.

Did you know that Governor’s residence wasn’t always located at Mahonia Hall? When Governor McCall was voting in this election he was living at a home at 796 Winter St NE, just a few blocks from the polling place at Garfield School. The family walked down to vote at 9:00 AM.
