19-1615. Appointment of judges; new precincts. In case in any township there shall be two or more election precincts, and in any of said precincts there shall not reside any authorized judge of election, the township trustee of the township shall appoint three judges of election to make such registration. In case in any voting precinct there shall not be a full board of authorized judges of election, the authorized judges of election residing in such voting precinct shall appoint judges from the voters of such precinct to fill such vacancy; and in case a new voting precinct shall be formed by the division or organization of a new township, or otherwise, the judges of the election in the new voting precinct thus formed may make their registry of the electors on the day prescribed by this act, in such manner as a majority of them may direct, and for that purpose may make a list, or cause to be made a certified copy of the duplicate poll books of the township in which such new voting precinct is situated, or out of which it may have been created, or they may dispense with such list or lists, and proceed to make a register of electors from the best means at their command. Said lists shall only embrace the names of such persons as are known to them to be qualified electors of their voting precinct, and shall be posted up, copies thereof made, and the original filed as prescribed in the preceding section, and shall be corrected in the same manner that other lists are corrected.
