(Other persons are voting and being assisted by volunteers, all unseen. But their conversations can be overheard.) At one point the President is amused, and almost laughs. President Roosevelt speaks with a man briefly, who helps him step aside, using his cane. At the same time, Eleanor Roosevelt helps her mother-in-law enter the open voting booth, and makes sure the curtains are closed. After Sara Roosevelt leaves the booth, Eleanor Roosevelt listens to brief comment from man assisting voters, and then enters the booth and votes. She is seen backing out of the booth.
