Sec. 9-280. Sample ballots. In addition to the official ballots delivered to each
municipal clerk, the Secretary of the State shall, at least one week before any election,
send to the clerk of any municipality in which any election is to be held a number of
sample ballots for general distribution, printed on pink paper, such number to be equal
to twenty-five per cent of the total number of official ballots sent to such municipality,
and the expense of printing such ballots shall be paid by the municipality. The expense
of delivery of all official and sample ballots provided for by this part shall be prepaid
by the state. Any person desiring an additional number of sample ballots may obtain
the same by filing with the Secretary of the State, within three days after all nominations
have been made, an application therefor, and by paying to said secretary the actual cost
thereof; and said secretary shall deliver such sample ballots at least one week before
the election at which the official ballots are to be used.
