Presidential Primary Statute Challenge Debated in Oregon
In Eulem Oregon on February 11 a committee of J M Keene Medford and J L Unger Astoria formed by the republican state central committee decided to not initiate a suit immediately to test the presidential preference primary law. The case would seek mandamus or injunction to require proper ballot instructions allowing ten delegates and five electors. The panel fears the secretary of state will follow the law, but the attorney general says it is sufficient ground for suit. The case would be moved to the supreme court which has original jurisdiction. The central issue is whether the law disenfranchises voters with other legal questions to be raised.
