Who Can Vote in County

Acknowledgement Isaac Lobe Straus
Tuesday gave an opinion setting forth
the qualifications of county voters who
want to participate in the primaries.
1.-The qualifications Of voters in the
primaries in the counties under the Acts
of 1910 are that they be registered and
that they declare that they are MEN,
BERS OF THE PARTY in whose pri-
maries they offer to vote, and that they
will vote for the candidates of that
party in the following state or county
election. This is all the law requires
and nothing more can be expected of
voters.
"They cannot be required to take any
oath at all, their declaration or state
ment, as above stated, being all that
can be demanded of them.
They cannot be asked by the judges
or challengers whether they will vote at
the next State or county election for
this candidate or that candidate, or for
any particular set of candidates. their
general statement TO the effect above
given being absolutely sufficient to
entitle them to vote.
"The sincerity and truthfulness of
their statement or declaration that they
will vote for the candidates of the party
is a matter entirely within the breast
and conscience of the voters. If, in
accordance with the law. the voter
declares that he is a MEMBER OF THE
PARTY in whose primaries he seeks to
vote and will vote for its candidates at
the next state or county election that is
sufficient to entitle him to vote. He
cannot be made to declare specifically
that he will vote for all or for any par
ticular number Of the candidates of the
party in whose primaries he desires
to take part.
IL am convinced that the law does
not contemplate that every voter who
seeks to take part in the primaries of a
particular party must absolutely bind
himself unfailingly to vote without any
exception whatsoever, which, in his
conscience and duty, he may feel called
upon to make) for all candidates of the
party in whose primaries he has taken
part. Such a construction would drive
thousands of the membership Of both
parties away from the primaries and
practically rob them of their suffrage IN
the selection of the party candidates.
ION the other hand, the law in my
judgment, WILL NOT PERMIT A
MAN TO TAKE PART IN THE
PARTY PRIMARIES WHO PRO-
POSES TO SUPPORT ONLY ONE
CANDIDATE. OR ONLY CERTAIN
PARTICULAR CANDIDATES OF
THE PARTY. if he himself sees fit to
voluntarily state that such is his pur-
pose.
81 think both the purpose and policy
of the law and sound public policy as
well are gratified and subserved by the
construction which have indicated
above as. in my judgment. the correct
one. that voters proposing to take part
in the primaries of any party may estab-
lish their title to do so by declaring that
they belong to such party and intend to
support its candidates at the next State
or county election. without particular
izing as TO how many or which special
candidates they intend to vote for at
the State or county election.
