the city Democratic party, told Council
"If the election was within a hundred
votes, both parties would be in court."
Last night's harsh criticisms came in
the wake of punchcard's Tuesday debut
in a citywide election. Complications
arose during the vote-counting for that
election, and canvassers were forced to
count the punchcards by hand using
magnifying glasses. The votes were not
tabulated until shortly before midnight,
almost four hours after the polls closed.
Adamo used the audience partic-
pation time at last night's meeting to
blast the punchcard system and
suggest the city consider reverting to
the old lever-machines. "(The punch-
card) system just isn't a good system
for the city of Ann Arbor," Adamo told
Council.
AND REPUBLICAN Mayor Louis
Belcher agreed. Belcher said GOP of-
ficials had conveyed to him similar
criticisms of the new system. Con-
sequently, Belcher proposed the
establishment of a committee-com-
posed of members of both parties,
representatives from the Canvassers,
the city clerk, and interested
citizens-to review the system.
Belcher said the committee would be
charged with coming up with "specific
recommendations' on the fate of pun-
chcard voting in Ann Arbor.
Adamo said he had no such objection
to such a bipartisan committee, but
doubted whether three or more months
of study is necessary. "I think for both
parties, once was enough," Adamo
said.
COUNCIL MEMBER David Fisher
(R-Fourth Ward) said he would in-
troduce a resolution at Monday night's
meeting to abolish the punchcard
system entirely. They asked Belcher to
withhold the forming of his committee
until a vote could be taken on that

resolution.
A major emphasis of the Board of
Canvassers report was "the total num-
ber of persons, other than the voter,
who could and did handle the voters'
ballot - eight or nine legally, and
perhaps ten or more if challengers are
included."
CITY CLERK Al Volbrechtr discoun-
ted many of the report's criticisms of

cards I
punchcard as having "no relevance onj
the punchcard system itself." He said
there are complaints after elections no|
matter which system is used.
Volbrecht's assessment of the systems
was "There are still procedures which
need to be perfected. I'm not satisfied
with every aspect, but by and large, I'm
satisfied with it as a whole."
