      records, without obliterating any of  the  entries  thereon,  and  shall
      enter the reasons for such cancellation on the face of such registration
      record  or,  if  the  board  uses computer generated registration lists,

      preserved   in  the  same  manner,  and  for  the  same  time,  as  such
      registration poll records.
        2. The board shall supply a list  of  registration  cancellations  and
      reinstatements  to the county chairman of any political party requesting
      same.
