Primary Primary Law Call and Central Committee Resolution

A county Republican resolution orders a primary to nominate a ticket for the November election. Candidates must file with the county board of elections by January 24 and pay assessments ranging from 25 to 50 dollars. The plan includes nine delegates and nine alternates to a state convention. The vote on a separate resolution was largely against holding a read for primary elections, and a statement disclaims sending delegates to future conventions.

Central Committee Perpetuates Itself in Athens County

The Athens county central committee met in the board of elections room at 1 PM and moved to perpetuate its own existence until the legislature acts. Bryson dominated proceedings as the group passed a unanimous resolution to hold a February 11 primary for a Republican county ticket and for delegates to the state convention. A second resolution proposed the old committee stay in place unless a primary bill passes, with a plan to elect a new committee within three weeks of any failure, amid protest from Arte Irene and others who argued against perpetuation.
