§ 9. Boundaries of voting precincts; registration books; duties of county court.

Voting precincts in the several wards for the city election shall be the same as to boundaries as those fixed by the county court for all state and county elections. Consistent with state law, the county clerk of Kanawha County shall carefully preserve in his office, registration books of each general state and county election for all of the precincts of the City of Charleston, and the original of said books shall be used as the registration for all regular and special city elections, with such corrections as are provided for in state law. Said registration books shall never be out of the possession and control of the county court of Kanawha County, or the clerk thereof, except as may be permitted or required by this Charter or state law.
