<br />
<br />SINCE THE :CITY FREQUENTLY HAS OCCASION TO CONDUCT ELECTIONS, WE DO HAVE AN
<br />INTEREST IN MODERNIZING VOTING METHODS. SEVERAL ADVANTAGES IN THE VOTING MACHINES
<br />DO OCCUR TO ME:
<br />
<br />I ; J.
<br />
<br />. .
<br />
<br />ECONOMY - VOTING MACHINES ELIMINATE THE NECESSITY FOR HIRING AND PAYING'
<br />COUNTING BOARDS, WHICH IS COSTLY.
<br />
<br />e
<br />
<br />SPEED - VOTERS CAN MARK THEIR BALLOTS MORE QUICKLY. RESULTS OF ELECTIONS
<br />ARE KNOWN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY.
