The information to Voters, given IN
election notices is faulty, inasmuch a. IL
lacks clearness. For instance, compare
these two sentences: ~ "A ballot so
marked and having no other mark, will
be counted for all of the candidates OF
that party in the column underneath,
nnless the names of some OF the cahdl-
dates of the party have been erased ana
will be counted for all the names written
in lien of one erased or pasted over
printed name 2J eff he wishes to
vote for a person whose name Is not on
the ballot, he must write the name IN
the blank space under the printed name
of the candidate for the Office, and make
a cross, y, in the square at the right OF
it. The ballot should not be marked IN
any other manner"
According to the statementahoyed esig-
mated a. one d. a name may be pasted
over printed name. According to the
statements designated as two ~, name
may not be pasted over printed name
Again, in one ~ we find the clause
"and will be counted for all the names
written in lieu of one erased or pasted
over printed name Notice oil written
in lieu of one erased. In reality, but
one may be written in lieu of one erased
Again, consider the phrase, I'm lieu
of one erased or printed or pasted over
printed name" Now, part OF the mean
ing intended to be conveyed in the In
formation to Voters" is that name
pasted over a printed name will be count
ed; but the phrase above quoted says
will be counted in lieu of one
pasted over printed name
Note the relation of pasted over a
printed name" to lin lieu of one, and
see whether or not the Information to
Voters is clear.
There are other defects in the language
of the information under discussion; but
the foregoing illustrations should suffice
10 sustain the contention that the In
formation to Voters calls for revision
and clarlhCatiOn.
