Description:	Illustrations of counting votes on Elections night, how the Public is able to see an unofficial result the next morning, elephant talks to a woman Evansville is the shoppin center of a half million of people. Image Access WideTEK 25 Election Day 6 P.M. Polls close Cinch compared to election day A light vote Wont take us long to count Next Day 2 P.M. before official count on major offices is complete Each precinct has 7 officials so tabulating a few hundred votes ought not take long. Why is it one big precinct with 265 votes is in by an hour or so and one of 55 not here until morning Wont average 300 votes to a precinct Half are not in this morning Plenty verified we do not have to count With all the help the election board has, plus batteries of adding machines in the court house, it should not take long for a first official total if the precincts do their part Public But thanks to newspaper folk, figuring fast with all the unofficial available - gives me a result a few hours after the polls close. If 46 precincts can get their returns in in a few hours, why cant all of the 82 Morning After Only partial returns That ought to be easy - Why Evansville is the shopping center of a half million people? Ill say Grand prizes Evansville - The Shopping Center Of A Half-Million People Retail Trade Extension Bureau
