TRE ELECTRAL VOTES In Bad Shape Cause Trouble
Washington January 21. States have not sent electoral certificates to the President of the Senate by Monday as required. Fourteen states failed to comply, many others sent sloppy packets and some lacked proper credentials. Messages arrived to the President of the Senate instead of the Senate leader, Idaho sent to the Secretary of State, and several still loose on contents. Senator Manderson urged authentic circulars to improve future elections. Morton expected to preside Monday as Senate opens.
