Village Registration
Sets All-Time Record
With 13,694 Voters
Two Districts Exceed
1,000 As Turnout Rises
1,964 A*bove 1948 List
Freeport's registration for the
presidential election on Tuesday,
November 4, totaled 13,694, an all-time
record. Pour years ago it
aggregated 11,729, an increase for
•this year of 1,964.
Enrollment passed the 1,000 mark
in two election districts—1,030 in
the 44th, which has its polling place
in the Preeport Memorial Library,
and 1,003 in the 49th district, Hose
Ob. 4 on West Sunrise Highway
near..Iipng Beach avenue.
An Interesting fact was the num-ber
of voters of mature age who had
not registered in some years. In
fact, some had never voted. This
was Indicative of the aroused inr
terest _in- this year's election, and
naturally was interpreted in dif-ferent
ways by the leaders of the
two major parties. The general
opinion was, however, that it favor-ed
the election of General Dwight
D. Elsenhower the Republican can-didate
for the presidency.
