Democrats file recount petition

A petition to recount ballots in Warsaw’s November 6 election was filed November 21 by Kosciusko County Democratic Chairman Stanley Nice, representing H. Dale Tucker and John Kleeman. November 21 was the last day recount petitions could be filed with County Clerk N, Jean Messmore in Kosciusko Circuit Court. Incumbent Mayor H. Dale Tucker, a Democrat, was defeated by Republican Paul (Mike) Hodges by 23 votes in the race for mayor of Warsaw. In the city council race. Democrat Kleeman lost the election by 21 votes to incumbent Republican Phil Roy. The Democrats are asking that ballots be recounted by hand in all 15 precincts. According to Nice, there may have been some "irregularities.” One source reported Nice said, in some instances. permission to vote was given over the telephone. He also claimed there may have been some* illegal voting such as persons voting in the wrong Shop early, mail early season declared Officials of the postal service are encouraging shoppers to shop early and mail packages early during the holiday season. "By shopping early and mailing early, the public can be better assured their cards and parcels will reach their destinations in plenty of time for Christmas. "Postmaster H.C. Colwell said. "With the Christmas*shopping season officially open, we wish to further emphasize that many suggested overseas mailing dates, including the U.S. Armed Forces, fall due before the end of this month." Postmaster Colwell said "These dates, as in past years, vary according to different parts of the world. Specific information can be obtained by calling the Milford Post Office. The important thing to remember is to do your shopping early and mail your cards and parcels early . " "In addition to planning early shopping." Postmaster Colwell suggested, "you should take the necessary time to properly prepare your cards and gifts for mailing Use ZIP Codes. Legibly write your own ZIP-Coded address and the full ZIP-Coded address of the recipient.'' "This helps in processing your mail more rapidly and assists in making delivery in case portions of the address become illegible." he said. The office also recommends proper wrapping of gifts to be mailed, including use of strong packaging materials. "Remember." Postmaster Colwell said, "the key to the successful mailing of cards and parcels is to allow adequate time. Shop early, allow enough time to properly prepare cards and parcels for mailing, and mail early. By cooperating with the post office in this matter, you will help us help you have a better Christmas." There’s no way to economize without doing without something.

precincts or persons voting who live outside the city. Nice added he was not questioning the integrity of Jean Messmore, "just the way the office functioned in this particularinstance.” In accordance with the State Election Code, Circuit Court Judge Pro Tern Richard Sand will order the recount by December 1, appointing a commission of three persons to conduct the recount. There must be at least one Republican and one Democrat on the commission and each candidate and a watcher may attend the recount. The cost of a recount does not come cheap to the Democrats. They must pay $32 court costs, a $l5O bond, $lO a day to commission members and attorney fees which are expected to be a considerable amount. This will be the third recount for Hodges in his political career. In 1963 Hodges ran under the citizen’s ticket and was defeated by Republican Joe Johnson by 95 votes, but Hodges picked up 22 more votes in the recount. In the 1975 primary, he defeated Lawrence Butts by six votes and lost three votes in the recount, winning the election by only three votes. • By law, the Republicans or Independent mayoral candidate Howard (Sam) Holbrook may file a cross-petition within 10 days, asking for a recount in the precincts they prefer, but it is unlikely the Republicans or Holbrook will file such a petition since the Democrats are seeking a recount in all precincts.
