- Michigan Democratic Party Campaign Button, 1952-1956 - Political party officials want voters to cast a "straight-party" ballot -- to vote for every candidate running from their party. In the 1950s, the Democratic Party encouraged Michigan voters to "Make it Emphatic Vote Straight Democratic" by casting their ballots for G. Mennan Williams for governor and Adlai Stevenson for president. Voters split the ballot anyway. Williams became governor, but the state backed Republican Dwight Eisenhower.
