Heavy vote predicted in Baytown public housing election
Large number of 1936 poll tax receipts issued this year in Baytown signals a heavy turnout Saturday for the public housing referendum. Polls run 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. with voting machines in all precincts. The issue pits the Baytown Real Estate board against the Baytown Housing authority and allied groups. The Ministerial alliance reaffirmed support after some ministers reportedly reconsidered. The Baytown Homeowners association opposes federally funded housing while the Greater Bartown Improvement group backs it. City secretary Edna Oliver noted qualified voters must hold property for taxation, be state residents at least one year, city residents six months, and possess 1936 poll tax receipts.
