L. Long, Laurens, leading can didate in the primary, said he heard 1,000 had to be eliminated in his county because of improper “scratch ing.” In Greenwood county the total of the vote in the solicitor’s race was 433 less than the total in the race for the United States senate, accord ing to Cv A. Mays, who said the votes h^jbeen thrown out. Sonie held that the manner in which the names were printed on the ballot led to confusion. On many ^f the ballets two were voted for in stead of ohe. ~ “ ^ Douglas JPVatherstone read a letter from Hugh Bosley, one of the can didates, in which he said be has re ceived a resolution passed by the Newberry county executive commit tee calling attention to the fact that about 3,415 ballots, in the solicitor’s race, had been thrown out, out of a total of 8,345, and recommending some action by the state committee. “Any attempt at an election which would result in- 3,145 votes_being -thrown «utr-out of a total of 8,345, that is, more than 40 ‘per cent of the total, has manifestly failed to ex press the will of the people,” he wrote. “To let such a result stand would amount to a breaking down of our Democratic primary sysitem. ... As I see it, the only possible way in which this sftuation can be reme died is ta declare the first election (in the solicitor’s race) void and to call a new election and to permit any or all of the five candidates to run over just as though the first primary was being Jield again. “The official count shows that 0. L. Long received k^e highest nunriber of votes, *that 'I received the next high est, and that B. V. Chapman received the third highest. On this count Mr. Long and myself would necessarily be ip the aecond. primary. Though I have'a great ambition.to hold the of fice of solicitor, I would n^t care for -4t wiless 1 "^uld feel that 1 was the real choice of the people. I would not care to win on a fluke. I recommend to the state committee that a new j election-iie--called and arrangemanta made ftu'.^a run-off be1;ween the two highest if no one received a majority in the next primary.” A letter from Mr. Long was to the effect that he wanted steps taken t<o see jusriocr-^one and the “true hrill^ of the peopIe’V Ascertained. . “I consent ito the ordering of a new election,” he said in his communica tion. / S. P. B^i^hee, speaking for Mr. Charles, said that the latter would McDaniel CUNCQN.aC make no protest and-left the matter in the hands of the state committee. 0. F. Armfield, of Newberry, said that B. V. Chapman another of the candidates, was making no protest against a new election.. The recorded standings in the Eighth circuit race which was dis counted, were: O. L. Long of Laurens, 7,480; Hugh Beasley of Greenwood, 5,279; B V. Chapman of Newberry^^ 4^72; W. K. Charles of Greenwood; 9i^7; C. A. Young of Greenwood, 2,647.
