Election Board Not Liable Under Law While the county election hoard lias agreed th a t a faulty voting machine gave 20 more votes to Republican John A.

Ebbert, was missing from the machine. After a conference Monday when, the defective F i r s t Wa rd voting machine was inspected, Election Board Chairman Ar th u r R. Campbell J r ., said a ruling will be made by th e solicitor. The solicitor la te r ru led the election code s ta te s th a t : the function of a county re tu rn (election) hoard is to count the vote, not to d e t e r mine the qualifications of electors or to exclude a poll because of defects in the election machinery.

This means th a t if Efbbert chooses to contes t the re su lt he would have to tak e i t to court and would have to file within 20 days of November 24, the da te th e count was made, according to the County Solicitor, Jo h n B.
