Special police to replace regulars at polls in upcoming elections
Acting Mayor Richter says more than one hundred special policemen will be appointed for next Saturday’s Democratic primary and the August 8 mayoralty election. Specials will patrol city beats rather than polling places to avoid precinct crowds, while regulars handle polling-site security. An injunction may be sought by the Citizens' League to block the move under Terrell election law provisions.
