Cabarrus County Stays Democratic, Nov. 5, 1924

Cabarrus County Stays Democratic. . . Every Democratic Candidate in the County Elected by Majority Larger Than That of Two Years Ago. . . Elliott Received the Most Votes. . . His Majority More than 1,300 Over J.A. Winecoff—Kannapolis Vote Really Decided the Election

Showing gains in all of the important precincts of the county the Democrats carried Cabarrus by majorities ranging from 913 to 1,927. The majority this year is more than twice that rolled up two years ago when the county went Democratic for the first time in more than a dozen years.

The voters were late reaching the polls in this county but once the Democrats got started they kept up for a procession that spelt victory for two more years. At the noon hour the Republicans were leading in a number of the precincts in the count and, the vote in some of the city wards was close. During the afternoon, however, the Democrats started the triumphant march and when the polls closed there was no doubt as to the outcome.
