Voting Machine


September 16, 1968, Twin City News-Record
This is a timely piece, as elections are only weeks away.  I recall the first time I saw machines like this was as a small boy, accompanying my mother to Jefferson School so she could vote.  I was intrigued, to say the least, especially by the swipe of that final big lever which cast the vote and simultaneously opened the curtain.  What a marvelous contraption!  So, just get out and vote.  Maybe you'll get a similar thrill, or perhaps some other method will have to do, depending where you live.  But nevertheless, do your civic duty.

  1. ***Important*** Request a paper ballot if you polling place has electronic voting. This coming election is very important and we need to have a fair and accurate vote count. Please.
