L. W. Moen declared Culbertson mayor; voters approve 20‑mill levy
Summary
After the April 4 election and April 6 canvas, the Culbertson Town Council declared L. W. Moen mayor and certified a voter‑approved increase of the general municipal levy from 15 to 20 mills (34–14). Several aldermen were also declared elected.
L. W. Moen was declared elected mayor of Culbertson after the town council canvassed ballots from the April 4, 1932 election and certified the returns on April 6. The council reported vote totals that placed Moen in the mayoral office and confirmed the election of A. W. Warden and N. Johnson as aldermen for their respective wards.
The council also certified the results of a ballot question to increase the general municipal levy from 15 to 20 mills. The canvass record shows the proposition carried by a 34‑to‑14 margin, meaning the additional levy approved at the election will be assessed on taxable property within the town to support general and administrative municipal expenditures.
The meeting record lists the elected names and the certified tallies; the council completed the canvass and adjourned after recording the results. The clerk subsequently carried out the administrative steps tied to the election, including pay for election workers and related bookkeeping.
