In a bid for secrecy, candidates will drop final subscriptions into a sealed ballot box at Planters Bank Americus Ga. No campaign staff may submit entries this week. The box remains sealed until 9 PM Saturday October 31st. Judges will open it and add published vote totals plus reserve votes to declare winners.
An important notice states that all subscriptions deposited in the sealed box must include cash, money order, bank draft, or certified check for the full amount. Personal checks will not be accepted, and the rule is enforced to be fair to all candidates.
Candidates must verify and attest to the correct vote count by Friday as judges accept the last count as absolute and final. The ballot box is now at Planters Bank for deposit of all votes and subscriptions.
Campaign boosters announce that every club contributing $12 in subscriptions secures a portion of a $100,000 fund. Organizers urge clubs to collect, promising broad support for community programs and local initiatives.
The Times Recorder urges candidates to push hard in the final three days of the circulation sales drive as a sealed ballot box at Planters Bank opens for last minute subscriptions and votes. Campaign details and deadlines are outlined, with final counts due by 9 p.m. next Saturday.
