Voters Entitled To
Leeway on Judgeship

The balloting for the Garrett
county iudgeship in the May Is
primary election offers an unusual
event.
Both Republican and Democratic
candidates for judge will be found
on both ballots, through a system
of cross filing which is permissible
in such contest.
There are three candidates. S. r.
Pagcnhardt and w. Dwight Slower,
Republicans, and Stuart F. Hamill,
Jr.. Democratic. Should one of the
candidates get the majority of
votes on both tickets then that
candidates name would appear on
the November ballot but without
opposition.
Should Hamill receive the ma
jority of votes on the Democratic
ballot and one of the two Rcpubli-
can candidates receive the majority
on the Republican ballot, then two
names will appear on the Novcm-
Der ballot.
There is also this possibility. The
Democratic candidate could get
majority of votes on the Rcpubli-
can ballot while a Republican
might get majority of votes on
the Democratic ballot. Should this
happen the two names would APP
pear on the November ballot.
There are several possibilities in
the primary Voters will be entitled
to make their selection from among
three candidates. This is possible
only in voting for judge.
There is some question among
voters about the totals. The votes

both ballots, with the highest num-
Der being used, Votes will be count.
cd separately on the Republican
and on the Democratic ballots.
They will not be pooled. The one
receiving the highest number of
votes on the Republican ticket will
be nominated, and the one receiv-
ing the highest number of votes on
the Democratic ticket will be NOM
mated for his party.
