November 3, 1946 witnessed the elections for the provincial, city and county people’s committees, the first of their kinds in the history of Korea.
At 10:00 am Comrade Kim Il Sung (1912-1994) went to the polling station of Sub-constituency No. 52 of Constituency No. 6, Pyongyang Municipality. When he arrived at the polling station, the voters heartily welcomed him with loud cheers reflecting their infinite reverence for him. In the past they had been subjected to all sorts of maltreatment without having any right under the harsh rule by the Japanese imperialists, but he had put forward them as the legitimate masters of the country. After waving back to the cheering crowd, he went to the notice board for candidate. Looking at the brief record of the candidate, he said with satisfaction that the candidate was a worker.
Then he said to officials: It is very good that all our people take part in elections with the right to vote, exercising national sovereignty; under the Japanese rule, our workers and peasants never elected genuine people’s representatives on their own.
After a while, the election began.
Kim Il Sung received a ballot after registering himself for election. He went to the ballot box and voted for the candidate.
