THE BALLOT—This, with certain exceptions, is
what your ballot is going to look like in the July 24
Democratic primary. The exceptions are these: 1. Your
ballot will not carry the names of all candidates for coun-
ty commissioner, justice of the peace and constable, but
only the candidates for those positions in your precinct
They are listed here so a complete slate of candidates
could be made. 2. Your ballot will carry the names of
candidates for executive committeemen. They were not
all listed here because of the limitations of space. Other-
wise, this is a copy of the official ballot.
