Excerpt from Truman's speech given at the Cleveland Municipal Auditorium in Cleveland, Ohio, on October 26, 1948.

"You know that the same doctor I told you about in Pittsburgh the other night--that Republican candidate--keeps handing out these sleeping polls, and a lot of people have been taking them. The doctor keeps telling the people: 'Don't worry. Take a poll and go to sleep.'
"Most of the people are not going to be lulled or be fooled. They know that sleeping polls are bad for the system. They affect the mind and the body. An overdose could be fatal--can so affect your mind that your body will be too lazy to go to the polls on election day. 'You don't need to vote, the election is won--all I have to do is get Truman out of the White House.' "
