Instructing Voters On Machines for Local Election
A school of instruction for voters will be held in Waterloo and Cedar Falls on the use of U S Standard voting machines purchased by the county Board of Supervisors. The legal status of machine voting is affirmed by the company representative and state court decisions. A full state ticket will be posted on machines, with spaces above names for voters to write electors, and senatorial ballots printed separately on yellow paper. Auditors prepare alphabetical lists of June primary voters for November election use, with restrictions on party participation in the new primary law.
