He shall hold the same until the delivery of the official ballots to the judges of election of the precinct in which the elector resides and shall deliver the ballot or ballots to the judges with such official ballots.

In those cities which count ballots at a central location, absentee ballots that are received may, in the discretion of the city clerk, be retained in a secure place in the clerk’s office and such ballots shall be added to the precinct returns at the time of ballot tabulation. The clerk shall deliver a list of those absentee ballots received to the polls to record in the official poll book that the elector has voted.
