Voting Machine Commission Faces No Funds for Expenses
Indiana voting machine commission member Albert R. Thompson sought legal basis for paying travel and stationery costs from the state. The law creating the body has no expense provision, leaving members to consider private funds or official stationery. The commission, chaired by Hugh Dough, meets monthly starting May 15 in Room 12 of State House. The act’s taking effect is uncertain, with Secretary Hunt coordinating distribution to county clerks and securing receipts from officials to verify enactment.
