MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON", MONDAY, MAY 9, 1032. PAGE THREE ON BALLOT MUST ALSO BEAR AN X Voters at the primary election May 20th, can write In the Ame of their choice lor any office on the ballot, but must mark an "X" In front of the name. The Oregon election laws ipeciflcally require that this be done In order to have the vote counted, according to the county clerk. The written in name without an "X" In front of It, la worthless. The county clerk says she has re ceived many Inquiries on this point and desires that It be thoroughly un derstood by all voters, and that they govern themselves" accordingly In writing In names. There are spaces on the ballots, under each office, for writing In names. If a Republican voter desires to write In the name of a Demo cratic candidate, for any office. It counta on the Republican ticket, and not on his own party total. The same applies vice versa. May voters are under the impression the opposite rule prevails. The county clerk estimates there will be more names than usual writ ten In for the major offices, judging by the number of inquiries. Here tofore the writing in haa been con fined to constables, Justices of the peace, and facetious citizens who wrote in the names of Mose Barkdull and Dr. Keene for president. In 1028, when everybody was feeling good, the names of 125 well known men throughout the country were "written In" for constable, etc. The county court and county clerk, as provided by law, will meet tomor row and officially designate the poll ing places In the 68 precincts of the county. There will not be many changes from the 1930 election. V.'.
