Historical Political Cartoon: “In Counting There Is Strength” - Voting & Power #21415 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white editorial cartoon features a portly, mustachioed man in a fedora and vest, smoking a pipe while resting his arm on a ballot box inscribed “THE BALLOT.” Below, a sign declares “IN COUNTING THERE IS STRENGTH,” emphasizing the democratic principle that numerical majority confers legitimacy and influence. The exaggerated physique and confident posture suggest both physical and political weight behind civic participation.
