(Government returns won't be certified for weeks.) The count is made by almost 10,000 daily and weekly newspapers working hand in hand with Associated Press and United Press International. EEJ On election night, tens of thousands of newsmen pick up vote totals at precinct level, feed them up the line to local, state and national headquarters. Computers translate the numbers into hard election facts: who won, who lost. (Generally, the press wire services handle state and national counts; your local newspapers, city and county contests.) 23 Vote counting is only one key role newspapers play in a free election. Newspapers bring you coverage in unmatched depth of conventions and campaigns. Newspapers bring you candidates' words in a form you can go back to for checking and recheck ing. On editorial pages, newspapers express opinions, explore issues, help you weigh platforms and promises help you make a well informed choice. L'-ZvJ At election time and all the time you can bet on newspapers. V.Z And never lose. Thii dvrttmtnt prrparvd for Amfnnn Kwipptr PuNtahtrt AMnrittina By Battn Brtn Duritin A- Oihnrn.
