# Bỏ phiếu cho nhà cách mạng Ngô-Đình-Diệm (Vote for the Revolutionary Ngo Dinh Diem)

A pink-paper poster prints a photograph of Ngo Dinh Diem walking among uniformed officers and straw-hatted villagers, with the line 'Vote for the revolutionary Ngo-Dinh-Diem is to build a society of plenty and fairness'. The tell: the virtue words 'revolutionary', 'plenty' and 'fair' stand in for any programme, over a photograph of the candidate among soldiers and villagers.
