Conventions Have Right to Nominate Even If Not On Ballot
Des Moines Iowa May 10 Special: There will be no excuse for any political party to fail to field a county ticket in the year even if candidates were late or did not appear on print ballots. Attorney General Cosson ruled that the county convention retains jurisdiction to nominate when write in votes exist but no nomination made and this applies regardless of whether 10 percent of the county vote was cast. The Primary Amendment from the last legislature aims to shut out late nominations.
