Supreme Court May Review State Election Vote
Guthrie Okla Nov 15 The attorney general says the supreme court may review vote counts from all precincts under a state writ of certiorari to pull affidavits and evidence. The opinion notes possible powers under the constitution to supervise inferior courts and boards, including election boards. Reports claim lax enforcement and many illegal votes, especially the grand father clause, prompting questions about proper action by sovereign state authority. Information filed alleging armed men seized ballot boxes at a Swanson county precinct and forced a march to Mountain Park for a canvass. In Logan county the mandamus to compel canvass was delayed as two Democratic board members resigned.
