Rules for New Primary System Adopted by County Central
The 1895 rules govern the Story County Iowa primary elections for 1896. They require the county central committee to designate voting places with thirty days notice or immediate notice if a state convention call is late. Precinct judges are appointed by the committee with two Republican clerks, recording challenges and reporting results. Challengers, two Republicans per precinct, may challenge voters deemed ineligible, without denying any Republican the right to challenge.
