OPINION OF THE COURT
Order affirmed, without costs. Because the proceeding was not commenced in compliance with Election Law § 16-102 and 16-116, Supreme Court never acquired jurisdiction. The petition was, therefore, properly dismissed.
Concur: Judges Meyer, Simons, Alexander, Titone and Hancock, Jr. Taking no part: Chief Judge Wachtler and Judge Kaye.
