Many Voters Don't Cast Full Ballots 41,216-Vote Spread In Nov. 6 Election INDIANAPOLIS (W» —' One of the strangest things that happen in any Indiana election is the large number of persons who go to the trouble of voting but don’t take advantage of all the op-' portunities to choose between candidates. 4 For instance, on Nov. 6 there apparently were more than 20,000 Hoosiers who cast national ballots in the presidential race between President Eisenhower and Adlai Stevenson who didn’t bother to help decide whether Harold Handley or Ralph Tucker should be governor. Either they turned in a blank state ballot along with a valid national ballot, or their state ballots were thrown out as mutilated. And election officials believe the multiliation rate isn’t nearly that high. Actually, there was a difference of 41,216 votes between the number cast for president and the number cast in one of the Supreme Court judge races. The race between Sen. Homer Capehart and Claude Wickard for U.S. senator drew almost 10.000 more votes than the HandleyTucker contest. Since these two races appeared on beneath- the other on the same ballot, it can mean only that 10,000 voters voted for U.S. senator who ignored the governor race entirely. The situation was not one peculiar to this election. Polls workers have been mystified for years as to why so many voters cast votes for candidates at the top of the ballot and so relatively few for candidates at the bottom of the ballot. The senatorial race at the top, of the ballot drew 1.963,983 valid votes. However, the Appellate Court judge race at the bottom of the ballot .between Republican Dewey Kelley and Democrat Severin Schurger drew only 1,933,465 votes, a difference of more than 30,000. On paper ballots, which most Hoosier voters use, a voter could put an “X" in the party emblem circle at the top of the ballot and cast his vote for all 14 candidates for state offices of that party. Or he could put an “z" in each of the 14 squares at the side of the candidates’ aines. The’ election results always show that there are many voters who choose the squares rather than the circle possibly so they may scratch, and that thousands help decide the top races but skip the secondary races. Whether they are exhausted before they get to the bottom of the list, or just bored, nobody seems to know — —— ——-— — Diversified NORTHBRIDGE.
