IRATE WOMEN VOTERS
BALLOT-PAPERS TORN UP INSTRUCTIONS RESENTED Sidelights at the polling booths indicate that women will have their say, whatever the result. Two women voters who were reminded of their obligations at the parish hall at Devonport yesterday proved this. A woman and her daughter received their ballot papers together, and then commenced a rapid conversation. A poll clerk intimated that talking or interference with voting was not permissible. The woman became very vexed, and tore up her ballot papers, and threw them at the feet of the clerk. The daughter stalked out of the booth, casting her ballot papers into a corner of the booth.
The clerk carefully picked them up, and, marking them informal, placed them in the ballot boxes.
