Brummitt Asked For Ballot Law In Senate Primary
Raleigh March 19 Dennis G Brummitt attorney general has been asked by the state board of elections to rule whether Democratic senatorial candidates appear on a separate ballot in the June Primary or on the same ballot with congress and state offices. Judge J Crawford Biggs chairman of the board forwarded the request. The 1929 Australian ballot act was amended to place senatorial candidates on a separate ballot in the general election but the law’s applicability to the primary is uncertain. The same rule would apply to Republicans if they enter the primary. Rev H Grady Dorsett of Wake Forest plans to enter the Republican primary as senator. Republicans traditionally nominate senatorial and gubernatorial candidates at state conventions.
