Lane and Butler
Still Hold Lead
In Unit Votes
Mohoney Asks Recount
In Garrett County
After 858-805 Defeat


Butler remained in front today Il
convention votes for the Demo
cratic gubernatorial and .Repub
lican senatorial nominations, re
spectively, as official returns con
tinued to come in from Mary
lands primaries.
Both were trailing in popula
votes. however, and George F
Mahoney, the Governors princi
pal opponent. asked for recoun
in Garrett County. which has fou
unit votes in the convention.
The official tally showed Gov
Lane had carried that county. il
the extreme western end of tn,
State by SO votes, 858-805.
At the same time, Martin K
Miller, Baltimore attorney repre-
senting Mr.. Mahoney at the Wi
comico County canvass. announced
he would file a recount petition
today for that Eastern Shore
county, which has five convention
votes. Gov. Lane carried it by
BIT votes in the balloting Mon.
day.
Tydings Unw0rried.
Senator Tydings, Democrat
doesn't have to worry about the
outcome of the official canvass
Unofficial returns showed he
showed under his two opponents
in gaining the party's nomination
for fifth consecutive term-un-
precented in Maryland.
Theodore Roosevelt McKeldin
former Mayor of Baltimore, had
no primary opposition in his race
for the Republican nomination for
Governor.
Meanwhile, official returns from
Prince Georges County gave D
John Markey. Hagerstown, a
three-vote edge over Mr.. Butler
The final vote was 1859 to 1856
Unofficial returns Monday night
had given Prince Georges seven
convention votes to Mr.. Butler.
Despite the switch, Mr.. Butler
still was leading in enough coun-
ties to give him a total of 78 con-
vention votes-one more than nec-
eSsary for the nomination.
Ballot Box Guard Refused.
In announcing his intention to
seek q recount in Wicomicc
County, Mr.. Miller said STA ballots
were unaccounted for. He asked
the Board of Election Supervisors
to place special guard over the
ballot boxes last night, but his
request was refused.
So far, Gov. Lane. provided the
recounts do not take Garrett and
Wicomico Counties away from
him, seems assured of "a conyen-
tion votes to Mr.. Mahoney's 68.
If Gov. Lane and Mr.. Butler
win the nominations, it would be
the first time in Maryland's his
tory that candidate has a small
er popular vote but at least n of
the 152 convention votes.
