Elections records
Scope and Contents
Records document the primary activities of the Elections Division. They include records related the management of elections, records related to the registration of individual voters, abstracts of votes, precinct maps, and other election related material. The bulk for these records date from the 1930's through the mid 2000's
These records fall into three major categories: records related to the management of elections, records documenting the outcome of elections, and voter registration records. The earliest records are election abstracts, which date from 1878. Some earlier election materials are also located in the Board of County Commissioners journals. There are also cancelled voter registration cards dating from 1908. This series contains the first voter registrations for female voters in 1912 and 1913. There are also precinct maps for elections which begin as complete sets in the 1950 elections.
