§253. List of persons entitled to vote and valuation of their property; affidavits for persons omitted
Only property taxpayers qualified as electors may vote at this special election.
The registrar of voters shall furnish to the election commissioners appointed to hold the special election a list of the taxpayers entitled to vote at the election, together with the valuation of each taxpayer's property, as shown by the last assessment roll filed prior to the election. If any taxpayer's name and valuation of property is omitted from the list or erroneously entered thereon, the commissioners of the election may receive affidavits of the taxpayer's right to vote and the proper assessed valuation of his property, which affidavits shall be attached to the taxpayer's ballot. No defect in the list of voters furnished by the registrar of voters shall affect the validity of the election unless it be established that voters were thereby deprived of votes sufficient in number and amount to have changed the result of the election.
