OFFICIAL VOTE
The political history of Winnebago
county is more fully given and much better understood
by a presentation of the votes cast at the various
elections, than in any other way, and for convenience
of reference it will be appreciated. Any difficulties
arising from doubtful and contested elections will
appear in the chapter following, entitled
"National, State and County
Representation," in connection with the article
upon the office in question.
OFFICIAL VOTE.
It is the intention under this head
to give a complete abstract of the votes cast at
every general election held in Winnebago county since
its organization. This, however, cannot be done, as
the record of the votes cast in the years of 1857 to
1861, inclusive, were destroyed by fire. The names of
those elected are given without the number of votes
cast during those years.
