Luzerne County ballot perforation appeal moves to Supreme Court
Wilkes Bar re Pa June 14 An appeal of the Luzerne county court ruling that perforated ballots in the recent primary election were legal was being prepared by Abram Salsburg for Francis Shunk Brown defeated Republican gubernatorial candidate. County commissioners prepared to certify the county vote to the state elections bureau as Pinchot led Brown by about 20 000. The case centers on perforations showing county seat and district lumber punches, with Brown forces claiming mutilation and illegality though judges held the perforation legal. Pinchot supporters hailed a precedent set in 1926 when similar ballot marking prevented counterfeit votes.
