 Some Odd Votes
 There was q great deal of emitting and writing in. on city ballots, ac- cording to precinct election board members.
 Women are thought to have single shot county and state favorites in many precincts, where it was not un- common 10 find ballots. with no names crossed except half dozen for state offices and written names. One cleo ton officer said in his ptecinst num- Der of women had apparently written in the names of their husbands for pre- cinct committeeman and then selec ted several others at large to make up the required ticket.
 The practice of writing in names indiscriminately wrought up the tenl- pers of the clerks who had to repro duce them on the tally sheets. This greatly delayed the count.
 The woman vote is thought to have affected the republican sheriff race in large measure. Warren c. Davis showed Huffman under everywhere except in some of Huffman's home precincts where the Davis vote was comfortably large.
