whom certain voters cast their ballots.
| AS rule the average voter does moi
care who knows how he voted; but 1t Is
against the law for election officers tc
make public how any voter casts his bal
lot. The rule is that the ballots shall
be retained by the several committee
men for 80 days after the election, when
they shall be destroyed.
