Judge To Rule On City Poll Suit Before April 6
Houston judge said he would decide the Cartrett case before the city council election on April 6. If Connerton’s name must be placed on the ballot, changes will be announced in time for ballots to be changed. City clerk Edna Oliver said changes require about three days and cost 150 dollars to re equip voting machines plus 58 dollars to amend ballots. Connerton claims the property ownership requirement violates equal protection under the 14th Amendment. He rents a duplex, earns 7500 dollars yearly, and works as assistant manager at the Woolco center on Bissonet in Houston. He has lived in Baytown since March 20, 1970.
