was reported that a conference had been held with Mrs. Marjorie Page,
County Clerk. From this conference it was learned that the questions
to be acted upon by the voters could be placed on voting machines.
This will eliminate the necessity of appointing separate election
judges and clerkE,in all but five precincts whose boundaries include
area not within the City. By appointing the same election judges
and clerks in the majority of precincts, election expense to the
City will be substantially reduced.
The wording of the questions to be placed on the ballot was
discussed. After discussion the matter was tabled for consideration
at a future meeting. It was requested that Mr. Paup provide a legal
opinion on the authority of the Election Commission to determine the
wording of the questions to be placed on the ballot.
