Amateur Rodeo Attracts Group from Treharne Grange Party Enjoyed Sat. ■ j j j j | I i Office Desk . . . Tomorrow is election day and it is the duty of ail of us to go to ths polls! Sample ballots for both major parties are available so the can­ didates can be checked before­ hand and Voters Pamphlets have been received, giving help in the selecting of candidates. There are a tew points, though, that merit som'1 consideration as far as marking those ballots is concerned, because improper marking will disqualify a ballot. Most frequent errors are era­ sure; drawing lines through or underlining candidates’ names; voting for more candidat es than are indicat'd and writing in names without placing an X before them. These reasons why ballots will be disqualified wen compiled by R .gister and Vote, Inc. of Oregon, a group made up of 209 influential organ­ izations throughout the state. In case the vot ?r makes a mark he wishes to change, R & V sug­ gests the voter invalidate his X by circling it or a >k for a new ballot instead of erasin'’. “Voters may vote for fewer candidates than th? number indi­ cated, but if more than the indi­ cated number are voted for. this part of the ballot will be invali­ dated. "Write-in candidates ar? legal­ ly counted if the name of the candidate is placed in the proper space and preceded by an X.” Official figures for registration in the state show that the Repub­ licans now outnumber Democrats by 7,642 as of the close of regis­ tration April 15, a change from the registration figures for the 1950 primary when the Demo­ crats held a lead of 3.537 voters. Total registration in the stat? has increased from 711,719 for 1950 to 777,945 this year, a gain of 66,226. Columbia county is one of the 14 counties in the state where the Democrats lead in registra­ tion.
