The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1920-06-11
siARION COUNTY ELECTION
PASSES OFF QUIETLY

all of the candidates were busy most
of the day and they greeted the vot-
ers with cordial handshape and "a
Se for me will be appreciated"
AS result nearly every voter that
could be found was out, and cast his |
vote. The toatl vote in Ocala was
something over 500, which is the larg.
est vote ever cast in Ocala in pri. |
mary election.
There was no mud singing" in the
campaign, and for this reason We
think it the most pleasant campaign
ever carried on in the county, and we
are sorry that there was not room
for us all to win. 1t looks as if the |
editor of this paper goes down in de- !
feat for delegate from the state at
large to the San Francisco conven-
tion.
Sheriff-elect Thomas ha- the honor |
of receiving the largest vote OF any |
candidate in the county, his total vote !
being 1872. Next, to him Senator |
Fletcher polled 1914, or a majority
over Cats OF 1902. tts
Mr.. c. w. Hunter won out over his
three opponents with the handsome |
majority of 2S5. Uncle Billy Folks |!
was. his nearest opponent.
The closest race of any of the can
didates was the race for county COM
missioner from district No. 3. Mr.. |
Clyburn won over his opponent, Mr.. |
Douglass, by one vote.
