Within five days after receiving notice of the incorporation of any drainage district the county clerk shall ascertain from the tax rolls of the next preceding year the names of all freeholders resident in Kansas whose lands in whole or in part may be included within said district and deliver a certified list of the same to one of the persons appointed as judges of the first election to be held in the district, and at such election, and at all other elections held under this act, only persons who are eighteen (18) years of age and are freeholders resident in Kansas, whose lands in whole or in part are within the district, shall be permitted to vote, and they shall vote in the county within which their lands are located, but no discrimination shall be made on account of sex. The list so furnished by the county clerk shall not be conclusive, but the judges of the election may administer oaths and examine witnesses to determine the right of anyone to vote who may claim that he has been erroneously omitted from such list.
