49.51 COMMISSIONER TO CONTROL PRINTING.
The commissioner shall have charge of the printing of the ballots
to be used for any election held in the county, unless the
commissioner delegates that authority as permitted by this section.
The commissioner may delegate this authority only to another
commissioner who is responsible under section 47.2 for conducting the
elections held for a political subdivision which lies in more than
one county, and only with respect to printing of ballots containing
only public questions or the names of candidates to be voted upon by
the registered voters of that political subdivision. Only one
facsimile signature, that of the commissioner under whose direction
the ballot is printed, shall appear on the ballot. It is the duty of
the commissioner to insure that the arrangement of any ballots
printed under the commissioner's direction conforms to all applicable
requirements of this chapter. Section History: Early Form
