All Day Democratic Primary Approved for City Elections
The Democratic city executive committee approved an all day primary at the Police Station on April 11 to nominate municipal officers. Each ward must name at least two council and ward judges to appear on the ballot, with votes cast citywide. The panel also filled vacancies, replacing Harry Wood with J R Doran. The change shifts council nominations from ward to broader voter reach, prompting concern that nonlocal voters could influence ward choices and potentially derail ward preferences.
