Daytona, Republican presidential elec-
tors received majority of votes. the
DHytona electors showing preference
for Harding and Coolidge on a ratio of
three to two on Tuesday, according to
the completed tabulation of votes in
this precinct.
II was q complete reversal of form.
as Wilson electors. in 1916. carried
Daytona about two to one. against
hughes. and was due, of course. to
the large number of wom=n voting.

9ither"ise the ticket ran true To
iorn u. the national and state Deno-
cratic nominees being returne,. with
large majorities. most of then. from
twt to one. and some three to one. This
was DUE from rerusal OF the ballots.
to the TACT that hundreds of negroes
IN the county voted for Republican
pre- esidentiaI electors and yo.el Iitt,.

nosing the state ticket. voting the ma

The race for sheriff. staged by Lee
Morris and NJ. A. Galbreath. sub
traeted all. other interest from the cleo
tidn; the vote running along fairly
even at first, then veered TO Morris,
and finally swung around to 2s ma
ioIity for Galbreath. who was defeat
ed ON the county vote by 274.
The physiology of the ballot was
shown in the determination of Daytona
women to hep elect a Republican ma
tional ticket. but to retain Democratic
county officialdom.
If the threat of the Democratic
county political machine to challenge
and disfrancbise all those who voted
for other than regularly nominated
Democrats is carried out. two thirds OF
the Democratic party of the Daytona
precinct will not be allowed to vote
in the next primary. as approximately
900 persons voted in the Tuesday cleo
ton for other than the regularly nomi-
mated Democrats, -as opposed to about
4S0 who stuck to the Democratic elcc-
tors.
Three hundred persons went to tbs
lpols in Daytona and voted the ticket
without marking the ballot for sheriff
This number would apparently bt
lswelled to over a thousand in tht
county, which puts Morris majority o
