Notes
Hindenburg flew around Germany for over 74 hours, dropping eight different election leaflets, playing patriotic music, and broadcasting propaganda messages over loudspeakers for the upcoming election.
Translation from German to English of this propaganda leaflet:
Adolf Hitler in his historic Reichstag speech: “I cannot conclude this historical period in the reconstruction of my people without again asking the Germn people to give belated approval to me, my co-workers, and co-combatants for all that I had to carry out these days, in making seemingly autocratic decisions, taking hard measures and demanding great sacrifices.” Therefore, on March 29th, your vote for the leader [Führer]!
