Additionally, the text includes an application form for Cherokee Nation members to register to vote, which requires certification from the Bureau of Indian Affairs."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Cherokee,%201973%20Jan.%20-%201978%20Aug.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0014_thumbnail.jpg "Protecting Indian Interests: The BIA's Failures and Recommendations for Change")
