Honorable G. Edward Bradley<br />

Mayor<br />

Executive Department<br />

<strong>City</strong> Hall<br />

<strong>Somerville</strong>, Mass.<br />

Dear Mr. Mayor:<br />

<strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Somerville</strong><br />

Board <strong>of</strong> Election Commissioners<br />

<strong>Somerville</strong> ^3» Massachusetts<br />

• " - - - - February 13,<br />

After careful perusal <strong>of</strong> the budget the Board<br />

<strong>of</strong> Election Commissioners recommend in the interest <strong>of</strong> economy<br />

that one precinct in each ward be opened for the Presidential<br />

Primary April 27, 19M-8. It is the opinion <strong>of</strong> the Board<br />

<strong>of</strong> Election Commissioners that so few people take advantage,<br />

to vote on this day, opening <strong>of</strong> all Polling places is a most<br />

flagrant waste <strong>of</strong> money.<br />

The cost <strong>of</strong> opening all Polling Places would<br />

be TWO Thousand Five Hundred and Forty-two Dollars (25^2.00)<br />

The opening one precinct a ward would be a saving <strong>of</strong> about<br />

Eighteen Hundred (1300*00) Dollars.<br />

In the year 19^0 there were Nineteen hundred<br />

and Thirty-six (1936) Republican votes cast and Three Thousand<br />

Three Hundred and Eighty-three (33^3) Democratic votes<br />

cast, in the year 19*14 there was a total <strong>of</strong> Two Thousand<br />

Seven Hundred and Fifty-two (2752) votes cp.st in the entire<br />

city. These figures show that less than ten percent <strong>of</strong> the<br />

people will vote at this Primary.<br />

The Honorable, the Board <strong>of</strong> Aldermen<br />

<strong>Somerville</strong>, Massachusetts<br />

Dear Dr. Kurd an& Gentlemen:<br />
