Show ELECTION DISTRICTS WILL BE SUBDIVIDED Subdivision of approximately 105 overcrowded election districts dis-tricts had been ordered by the Salt Lake county commission Thursday. Explaining the election statutes statut-es involved, County Clerk W. J. Korth told commissioners that, although each district should not have more than 300 votes, about 105 districts including 75 in Salt Lake City showed more than 600 votes in the last election. elec-tion. He said the work should be completed as rapidly as possible in the city districts, owing to an election scheduled for this year. The cost of division would be negligible, he said, as his regular regu-lar staff could accomplish it. In all probability election districts dis-tricts numbers 334 and 335 in Bingham will be changed under this set up. In the 1936 presidential presi-dential election there were 566 votes polled in district 334 and 584 in district 335. |
