Democratic Sentinel, Volume 17, Number 34, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 September 1893 — A New Voting Machine. [ARTICLE]
A New Voting Machine.
An Indiana man named Dobbins has invented a voting machine which is said to be more simple and accurate than any similar machine. The tickets are printed on one continuous roll, which is locked in the machine. Beneath a glass-covered table the ticket passes from this roll to another roll fitted into a ballot box. The glass cover is divided into four sections, and between »ach section is a row of keys similar to the Typewriter. The upper key is larger and is called the straight ticket key, and when this is struck it locks the other keys, thus preventing mistakes.—[lndianapolis News.
