Hi donda, welcome to Rootschat.

I've been checking out the North Yorkshire Record Office website to see if I can find a reference to the electoral registers for Ripon but haven't had much success. It may be easier for you to email them and ask if they have the specific records you're looking for:
archives
[at][/blue]northyorks.gov.uk (Replace [at] with @)
If they do have the records I think you may be able to pay them to do a look up, otherwise you could rely on any kind Rootschatters who may be visiting in the future.

There could be some other way to access these records, other Rootschatters may have some ideas. At the very least this will bump your query up the board!
