:, THE PLAN.
rhere is no reason why every Demo
orat In Richmond should not so 10 the
| roue in the legalized primary election
d,h,,edav and vote for the candidate Oh
his choice. ,....o,,,o,
In order 10 clear up a mlsconcepuoh
~ the plan and remove the objections Vi
some who have declared their Intention
Of not voting, the following exDlana'ioh
is published: --,,n,.a
The idea that a vote will not be counted
unless the entire ticket is filled out Is
/ erroneous.
| You may vote for single candidate Tor
| Nevor without voting for any othcr can
didota ON the ticket, with the assurance
that the vote for Mayor VIII be counted
should YOU. however, vote for one can
d,date for the Council when five are run
| nino your vote would not be counted. fou
must vote for all five. or in other words
Won must vote for the whole number Of
candidates necessary to be elected 10 I'll
the vacancies IN that Office. and no more
OF no less.
You can vote for any part Of the
| ticket OF the whole ticket. with assurance
that your vote will be counted If this
rule is adhered to. For example: There
are three candidates for Mayor and only
one Mayor TO Toe elected. To have your
vote counted you must scratch out two
| names leaving the candidate OF your
choice only on the ticket
Again. Take for example Clay ward.
where there are twenty candidates and
only five councilmen TO be elected. IL
YOU leave more than five names for coun-
cAmen on your ticket that part OF the
ticket will not be counted. but that part
correctly marked VIII be counted.
Every voter who votes in the primary
| binds himself to support all the Demo-
cratic candidates IN the regular election.
