Our laws concerning elections are more stringent in the past few years. Every precaution is taken to insure honesty of elections.
No officer of election shall do any electioneering on election day.
In all elections in Kentucky the voting shall be by ballot.
The ballot boxes are opened and inspected before voting begins to see that they are empty.
Electioneering is forbidden within one hundred feet of the polls.
Twice as many official ballots are provided for every polling place as there are registered voters in the district.
If a person is illiterate he is allowed assistance in marking his ballot.
An inspector may challenge a person's vote, but if they swear they are eligible their vote is recorded and marked challenged.
A person cannot vote who is not naturalized for at least ninety days before election. Also a person convicted of bribery or an infamous crime, a deserter from the army or navy, and one who bets on that election cannot vote.
The Governor of the State may restore one to citizenship so that they can vote.
