who runs second in a race for public
ONCE must remain second, even though
the candidate who finishes first may
be disqualified, rules the North Dakota
supreme court in affirming the decision
Of the Morton county district court IN
the case of Woll versus Jensen.
H. L. Woll and H. X. Jensen were
candidates for superintendent of
schools in Morton county at the last
election. Jensen finished first, and VOL
then contested his office on the ground
that Woll is not qualified under the
laws of North Dakota to be super
intendent of schools. The ruling of the
Morton county district court against
VOL now is confirmed.
The supreme court says: "A minor
fly vote for a qualified candidate does
not entitle such candidate TO the Office,
even though the candidate receiving
the highest number of votes was dis
qualified to hold the Office, and such
fact was known to the voters at the
time of the election. However, the fail
ure of the qualified candidate to re-
ceive a plurality Of the votes cast
renders the election a nullity."
Which means that Morton county
must hold a special election if it wishes
to enjoy the luxury of new county
superintendent of schools.
