Arkansas Supreme Court upholds voting machine contract
In Little Rock the Arkansas Supreme Court, in a 6 1 decision, sustained Pulaski County’s contract to buy 300 voting machines for the November election. The ruling did not compel county officials to appropriate funds. Attorney Jean Walther of Automatic Voting Machine Co. said shipment by Oct 1 is possible, despite financial risk if the machines arrive without county funding. Judge Arch Campbell opposed the devices since 1968 and leaves office Jan 1. Meteorites and meteoric streaks are noted in a separate passage.
