From collection Candidates
Marion E. Donovan campaigned for School Commissioner for the First District in Onondaga County, New York in 1893 on the Democratic ticket. In her campaign Donovan appealed to the support of women in particular: "to all women who feel that they, above all others, should have a voice in choosing those who have such children's interests in charge, I would present this solicitation for their personal assistance to aid me in my canvass."
