§ 4154. Voting rights.
At all meetings, each landowner shall be entitled to the same number of votes as the number of dollars assessed against the land of such owner in the ditch order. In the event that any lands are held by tenants in common or joint tenants, each such tenant in common or joint tenant shall be entitled to the same number of votes as his or her fractional share of the total number of dollars assessed against said lands. In the case of lands held by a husband and wife as tenants by the entirety, either the husband or wife may vote all the dollars assessed against their lands.
