Book Description
Excerpt from 1939 Supplement to Election Laws of Montana Section 678. Except as in this chapter otherwise provided, it shall be the duty of the county clerk of each county to provide printed ballots for every election for public officers in which electors or any of the electors within the county participate, and to cause to be printed on the ballot the names of all candidates, including candidates for Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the Supreme Court and judges of the district courts, whose names have been certified to, or filed with the county clerk, in the manner provided in this chapter. Ballots other than those printed by the respective county clerks, ac cording to the provisions of this chapter, must not be cast or counted in any election. Any elector may write or paste on his ballot the name of any person for whom he desires to vote for any office, but must mark the same as provided in Section 696, and when a ballot is so marked it must be counted the same as though the name is printed upon the ballot and marked by the voter. Any voter may take with him into the polling place any printed or written memorandum or paper to assist him in marking or preparing his ballot except as otherwise provided in the chapter. Section 681. Ballots for all general elections prepared under the provisions of this chapter must be white in color and of a good quality of paper and the names must be printed thereon in black ink. The ballots used in any one county must be uniform in size and every ballot must contain the name of every candidate whose nomi nation for any special office specified in the ballot has been certi fied or filed according to the provisions of law and no other names, except that the names of candidates for President and vice-president of the United States shall appear on the ballot as provided for by Section 813 of the Revised Codes of Montana, 1935.
