## Opinion text

I concur in the judgment of affirmance and in the opinion of Justice Angellotti, except as to the torn *Page 331
ballot (defendant's ballot No. 1). I think the evidence shows it was torn by the voter and delivered to the officers in that condition. A deduction of this vote and of all the illegally assisted votes from respondent's score would not, however, change the result.
McFarland, J., and Henshaw, J., dissented.
