Dempsey 100000 to 100000 for a

IDAHO ELECTION LAWS
Delegate Nominated by Two Parties
Must Be Credited to Both.

BOISE-In computing the size of
county delegations to state party con-
ventions, officials elected upon NOM
ination by more than one party should
be counted as having been elected
by both parties, and the total vote
should be credited to both parties in
making the computation.
This was the holding of Attorney
General Roy l.. Black In an opinion
recently on request of Secretary of
State Robert G. Jones, who was in
doubt whether Miss Ethel E. Red
field, state superintendent, who re-
ceived both the republican and the
democratic nominations in the last
campaign, should be counted as a
republican or as democrat.
Delegates to state party conven-
tions are apportioned on a basis of
the total number of congressional and
state officers divided into the total
vote, each unit of 400 of the quotient
emitting the county to one delegate.
