Upon nm estimate Of I'VE residents TO each

the basis of the voting population, the re.

He reaches this conclusion by the follow

white republicans, none Of whom will vote

this number you can safely deduct 20 per

20 per cent of the registered vote fails to
vote az the election for which the registra-
