Monroe County Election Book Index 1890-2020 May, 20210 This index contains the names of persons running for office on Monroe County ballots from 1890 through November, 2020. The county Elections Office holds these records in books numbered 0, 1 and 3-9. Their numbering system omitted a book numbered 2. There are 21,585entries in the index. They have been sorted into two files for searching: in alphabetical order by surname, then in chronological order by election year, and within that whether primary or general, and the level of election (federal, state, county, etc.) in chronological order by election year, and within that whether primary or general, and the level of election (federal, state, county, etc), and surname The index includes the following information: Names , surnames first Gender (coded “F” for female, and blank for male) Year of election Book and page numbers (not all books contain page numbers) Level of election (including federal, state, county township, city, town and school district) Whether primary or general (the first primary was held in 1926) Township, city, town or school district name (if applicable) Office sought Political party (if applicable) For general (but not primary) elections, winner of the election according to Monroe County votes – not necessarily the winner in state or federal elections (asterisk after name). Winners in county elections for precinct chairs and delegates to state conventions are not included. Gender of the candidates was categorized by given name. When a name was ambiguous with respect to gender, it was categorized as male. This doubtless led to a small number of mistakes in this category. There were occasional gaps in the Election books where political party was not given. The 1920 election was omitted in the Election books. Newspaper accounts were substituted, but these do not include township elections. The History Center has scanned all pages from each book, and these page scans can be printed for a charge of $1.00 per page. Indexing was done by Lee Ehman.
