According to those who had opporâ€" tunity to observe whnat was going on during the voting, it appeared that there was a considerable amount of confusion. Some had been told to vote "Against" when they had intended to vote "For," being led to believe that if they voted "Against," they would get lower power rates. No "HMydro" on Ballot! Others were very much disappointed because "Hydro" did not appear on the ballot. They did not appear to realizec that there was no actual Hydro proâ€" posal before them.
