Description:The parties would deliver cards to householders gving them instructions on where and when they could place their vote. Of course they also suggested how exactly you might like to place your vote! Note that the card asks you to hand it to a Tiptaft representativie after leaving the Polling Station. As still happens today the parties conduced exit polls outside the stations to see how their share of the vote was possibly proceeding.
