but three hundred of these go to the
Indianola man the other candidates
brought out for the purpose will divide
the outside field so that the 1ndianola
man is sure of nomination tho he re-
ceive but 800 votes. One remedy for
this evil which has been suggested is
to require the voter to record both a
first and second choice. 1t is argued
that the first choice vote will often
represent the political vote while the
second will represent the best judg-
ment of the voter A candidate getting
the greatest number of firsts and sec
onds will likely be a satisfactory can
didate.
