From the 11/6/1916 edition of the Minneapolis Tribune. The newspaper created this elaborate way of notifying the public-at-large by spotlight of local and national election results. They advised readers to cut out this key and look skyward over the course of the evening.

And for those that chose to venture Downtown to the newspaper’s offices on 4th Street, they could see tallies displayed on the outside of the building. The Tribune boasted of having a reporter at every polling station in Hennepin County that would quickly relay voting numbers by telephone.
