GEORGIA POLLS
100000 VOTES
Failure of Former Republicans
to Go to Polls Cuts Down
Anticipated Total.

Georgia gave Wilson majority over
Taft and Roosevelt in Tuesdays cleo
ton in excess of $1,000, and less than
5000 under the 10000 estimated by The
Georgian at T.: 80 o'clock election night.
The Democratic candidates majority
over all andidates-Republic Pro-
gressive Socialist and Prohibition-was
between $4,000 and $500, the Social
lists and Prohibitionists polling about
1000 between them.
The total vote Of me state was be-
tween 10000 and 121.00 This was
30, 1000 less than had been expected.
based on the vote polled in the state
four years ago. and the apparent in
creased interest this year that should
have produced D larger ballot than the
$4,000 of 1908. The shortage is easily
traced to the failure of former Repub
licans to go to the polls.
Complete tabulation of the vote of
the 146 counties in Georgia shows 49,,
285 ballots cast for Wilson, Roosevelt
and Taft And 1000 for Socialists and
Prohibitionists, and the total for all
candidates is 120,2S5. Wilson received
