Each ballot box shall be plainly marked with the name of the political party whose ballots are to be placed therein, by letters pasted or printed thereon or by a card attached thereto, or both, and so placed that the designation may be easily seen and read by the voter.

If a special election on a question or issue is held on the day of a primary election, there shall be provided in the pollbooks pages on which shall be recorded the names of all electors voting on said question or issue and not voting in such primary. It shall not be necessary for electors desiring to vote only on the question or issue to declare their political affiliation.
