PRIMARY RIGHT
TO FIRST VOTERS

All registered voters who on the regis
tration books as declined and who are vo.-
ing for the first time at a primary election
since April l6 1911, have the right to affiliate
on September IA and participate in the primar-
les that day. This ruling was handed down
by Attorney General Poe, who also ruled that
all males who attain the age of 81 years before
the general election next November, but who
are not of age at this time, have the right to
vote in the primaries under the provisions of
$50 E. of Chapter 792 of the Acts of 1914.
The Attorney General handed down his dec-
sion in connection with the ruling of the Court
of Appeals in the case of Murphy, a declined
voter of Baltimore city, versus Edmund j.
Wachter, a member of the Board of Election
Supervisors of Baltimore City. Murphy was
refused the right to affiliate just before the last
municipal primary, and the Court of Appeals
upheld the supervisors.
Pointing out the rights of declined voters
who have not voted in primary since April
of 1914, Mr.. Poe refers to section 160-E of
chapter 792 Of the Acts of 1914, which says:
The Law Quoted.
Each and every voter as he appears at the
first primary election at which he votes sub
sequent to the passage of this act shall, before
he is permitted to vote at said primary, state
to which party he is inclined and to which
party he desires to have himself recorded as
affiliated, and the Board of Registers, then sit
ting as jurges of election, shall thereupon and
at once enter in the column provided for party
affiliations the name of the political party to
which the voter is inclined and with which he
desires to affiliate, and in said primary and all
primary elections thereafter held, any person
so registered affiliated with given politi-
