ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is a carrying case, with integral top and bottom case sections. The bottom case section has a working surface for supporting a paper ballot or for pivotably securing a tray for receiving a vote recording device. A latch member secures the recording device on the tray. The bottom case section has a depressed well which externally stores erectable leg members which are integrally connected by an elastic cord to the case section. The top case section has a door which provides access to the recording device or other voting paraphernalia during the stored condition of the apparatus. The access door supports a light fixture internally provided with a test circuit which permits the light fixture to be tested when the apparatus is in stored condition. A defective light or light fixture can be readily removed by opening the access door. The latch member on the tray may be locked to prevent removal of the recording device. The access door has a locking tab which can be locked to the bottom case section. A pair of privacy side panels are integrally connected to the carrying case and maintained in upright position through a snap engagement with the top case section. Additional privacy may be obtained with an assembly having a generally "U"-shaped curtain rod having its ends insertable in channels provided in the side panels and at least one curtain panel supported by the rod. Each leg member is insertable into a socket defined by a partially molded structure, a yieldable molded socket insert and a yieldable molded corner insert to yieldably receive the leg member.
