District of Columbia residents line up for their ballots
in a Presidential election.
On November 3, 1964, residents of the District of Columbia cast
their ballots in a presidential election for the first time since 1800.
The passage of the 23rd Amendment in 1961 gave citizens of the
nation’s capital the right to vote for a commander in chief and vice president. They went on to help Democrat Lyndon Johnson defeat Republican Barry Goldwater in 1964, the next presidential election.

REPLICA OF WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN SOLD
A mansion in California that resembles the White House is
officially off the market after a buyer scooped it up in late
October.
According to Compass real estate agents, the seller fetched
$23 million in the Oct. 23 sale of the massive Hillsborough
home nick named the "Western White House."
Agent Alex Buljan told FOX Business it was "one of the
priciest sales ever in Hillsborough."
The Hillsborough mansion’s approximately 2.9-acre lot
features an "impeccably laid driveway" and "verdant
greens," the listing said. Also on the estate is a pool
pavilion (below) that sits near the mansion’s backyard
pool.
The new owner will also be able to work out of a stately
office similar to the White House Oval Office.
