Yeah, I kept waiting for mention of that Virginia poll tax to come up in the Waltons.  There are a few episodes about Virginia politics of the 1930's.  In one episode I think John Boy works for a state senate candidate for awhile, IIRC, but whether the Walton family would have actually been able to afford to vote is never mentioned.  I don't think they would have, as money was tight for them.
