When politics divide families

I remember this election.  My parents were split on politics, and for 60 years crossed out each other's votes, but I don't remember them talking about it. I also remember the day after the election when the newspapers printed the information wrong--they printed as late as they could and it looked like Dewey won, but it was Truman. Remember the day when we all voted on the same day?
