Excerpt from Modern Electioneering Practice Under the heading of "furniture, " the Returning Officer must supply ballot boxes with locks and keys. These can usually be obtained from the local authorities. The holding of polls at a general election all on the same day increases the number required, and the Returning Officer should be certain that he is in possession of sufficient for the efficient conduct of the election. An election is void if ballot boxes or other materials for voting are not available. Every ballot box purchased is the property of the State, and should be handed over to the local authority for custody after the election. Voting compartments present another difficulty in a general election, and care should be taken to see that ample provision is made for them. Furniture such as chairs, tables, etc., lights and fires may be provided and charged at actual and necessary cost. Stamping instruments may be purchased, hired, altered, or repaired, and charged at actual and necessary cost. As the official mark shall be marked on both sides of the ballot paper, and as such mark may be either stamped or perforated on the ballot paper, an embossing or perforating machine is the most convenient.
