The Action League was not contacted in any of the processes of that recount and we were not granted the privilege of being present ata hearing, if in fact, a public hearing was held as state law requires. We only received from the board of elections the final verification of the balloting. We do know that the recount in 1983 revealed that in two of the three issues on the ballot there was a sw- ing of exactly six votes’, said Land, who added, “We sub- mit that the results of the past alcohol referendums in Kings Mountain have shown that the citizens are about equally divided on this issue. It is an issue with deep emo- tional and self interest aspects and we want everyone to be assured that ballots were tabulated and exactly as tabulated.” Land sais that on the issue of alleged ‘illegal voters, the large number of citizens registered just prior to this referendum by special registrars who went from house to house greatly in- creased in their opinion the margin of error in registering non qualified citizens.” Jim Carroll, a member of the elections board, said if the present board allowed a recount on the basis of ‘no ir- regularities” it would be set- ting a precedent.” There have to be facts presented to us that show violations of the - law. There were no im- proprieties and I can’t vote for a recount. If you come to us with violations of the law I will vote for a recount.” Car- roll said that the recount of three years ago was a strict violation and an illegal elec- tion which was not verified. “I don’t know why it was not recalled”, he said. Mrs. J.C. Marable and Chairman Cook agreed with Mr. Carroll there was no evidence of voter ir- regularities. Mrs. Cook noted that ‘‘fresh counters’’ were brought in to help with the counting and that ballots were counted as many as three times with all No’s on one table, all ‘yes’ on the other, and all split votes on the other. The same pro- cedure was followed at both East and West precincts. Mrs. Cook says the law does not provide for ‘fresh counters” at an election and citied examples when she herself worked at the polls for 20 years and as late as 5 a.m. ‘to count votes by hand the votes in city elections. Mrs. Cook says she has voter printouts from the county showing list of voters at both KM precincts and she also has a copy of the ABC petition : bearing the signatures of citizens asking for the election. She said that numerous peo le had called to say they had not signed the petition.”” This board has no responsibility in registering voters. All we can do is look at printouts supplied us by the county.

The City of Kings Moun- tain, but not necessarily the ABC Commission, will be allowed to review those per- .mit applications and they have an opportunity to turn down those people they think may not be qualified. However, those people can file for an appeal to Raleigh and even though the city ob- jects to a person being issued a permit there have been in- stances that the state has: overruled and issued per- mits’ he said. Employees From Page 1-A don, a city magistrate, both of Kings Mountain, were taken to the hospital and treated for injuries after an argument developed between Ptl. Johnson and Bollinger as the young Bollinger, handcuf- fed, was being booked and as Mrs. Herndon was trying to break up the argument.’ Johnson and the elder Boll- inger were in city of Kings Mountain uniforms. Allen said there were several Cole added that the ABC commission must approve or disapprove of the proposed store site and the local com- mission then hires personnel for the store and begins stocking it.““It could be done in 60 days or it might take 90,depending on timing, noting that the state ABC commission only meets once a month and that board must approve the store site. noting that ALE officers also in- vestigate the site as well as background investigation of businesses applying for per- mits to sell alcohol. Restaurants and motels that begin selling beer and wine must prove that no more than 50 percent of their total revenues are derived from the sale of alcoholic beverages. All four issues on the ballot Jan.20th were approved by margins of less than 50 votes. On the question of sales by hotels and restaurants and other permittees the margin of approval was 6 votes. A state-controlled liquor store could generate more than $100,000 a year in profit, 50 percent which would be returned to the city and 50 “The tax deadline is looming.

Spokesmen for Citizens for Legal Control, the group that called for the referendum, estimated that legal sales would generate more than $175,000 a year for the city’s general fund. Under a statute passed by the General Assembly in 1969, however,half the net profit from any ABC stores established in Cleveland County must be turned over to the county’s general fund, according to state ABC of- ficials.
