Attorney General Gives Opinion

In private opinion written to Gay
Apple of Mariana, Attorney Gen
eral w. l.. Moose has inotiicially Y
set forth the following as his opin-
ion on conditions as to the qualifi-
cation OF voters and the election OF
county chairmen.
"In order for a person to be quail
fled to vote in the primary election
March 25. be must be 81 years
D. old at the time he proposes to vote.
If his twenty-frst birthday comes
after tie 25th Of March he coild
not vote IN the primary, although
he might be entitled to vote in the

ment No. 2 TO the constitution pro-
vides that a person shall be 81 years
old, a resident of the town IL
months, and a resident Of the coun'
ty six months, and a resident OF the
precinct or ward one month next
preceding any election at which be
may propose to vote. The express
sion 'any election applies in my
opinion to primary elections, gen
eral elections and special elections;
IN other words to all elections held
under tue provision Of the law.
"If person will have been IN
the state one year by the time OF the
general election in September, out
will not have been in the state
year when the primary election Is
held on March 25, if he Is other
wise qualified, he may vote IN tne

mary election.
sin regard to the election ell

where have had some experience

the committe outside the chairman
being elected by township conyen-
tionsin the several townships. Inc
