required for such county The form on
each such additional number Of bal
lots for such county shall be changed
on the second run and on each sue
ceeding run by lifting the top name of
each group Of candidates for each sep.
arate named office and placing the
same at the bottom of such list
Each Run Separate.
Each run made shall be kept sep
arate until the entire run is complet-
ed. Then they shall be assembled into
one series by alternating the ballots
of the several runs, viz, take one
ballot from each separate run and as
semble them together, then repeat the
until all ballots have
been arranged alternately into one
group or series. Said ballots when so |
assembled shall be numbered, bound |
and designated by precinct by print |
ing the name and number thereof on |
each separate ballot.
"To illustrate more clearly, take Ok
lahoma county as an example. Say |
it has 5000 democratic ballots. Divide |
this number by ten, which gives 600 |
Print the first run of 500 ballots and |
lift the top name of each group of |
for every separate named
office and place it at the bottom Of |
such list. Then print the second 600 |
and so on, until ten runs have been
made. Then assemble by taking one
ballot from each of the groups of 500
ballots until all have been assembled
INTO one pile.
This same plan can be carried out
Dy county election officers by taking
he township or precint as the unit
rom which to figure and using the |
argest number of candidates for any
single county office, the same as done
IN the state ticket"
