In. order that a clear understanding may be had In the matter Mr. Hess yes- terday prepared a circular letter as fol- lows, which he is sending out: There are two methods by which a voter whose party affiliations has been recorded as provided by the provisions of the pri- mary law may change his affillation and vate at the primary election. 1. Bection 187A of the supplement to the code, provides as follows: “Any elector who having declared his party affiliation and desires to change the same may, not less than ten days prior to the date of any primary election, for & written declar- ation with the county auditor stating his change on the poll books of the last pre- ceding primary election in the proper col- umn “opposite to his name and on the voting list. 2. Section 10§7-A9 of |the supplement to the code provides: “Any elector whose party affiliation has been recorded, as provided by this act and who desires to change his party “affillation on the primary election day “shall be subject to challenge. If the person challenged insists that he fs entitied 1o vote the ticket of the political party in whith he has transferred his political af- filiation, and the challenge is notwith- drawn one of the judges shall tender to him the following oath, ‘You do solemnly swear (or affirm) that' you have in good faith changed your party affillation to, and desire to become a member of the — party,’ and if he takes such oath, he shall thereupon be given a ticket of such polit cal party and the clerk's of the primary election shall change his enrollment of party atfiliation accordingly.” It will thus be seen that the person de- siring to change his party affiliation, if he has voted at any primary election prior thereto and has his name upon the primary election poll books may file with the county auditor a declaration of his change of affilistion and when the same {8 prop- erly recorded upon the poll books by the auditor, he will 1ot be subejtc to chalienge, and will be entitled to the ballot of the po- litical party to which he has thus changed his_atfiliation. If, on the other hand, he desires upon the primary election day to change his desires to vate the ticket of the other party at the primary election, he may cail for the ballot of the party to which he desires to change his affiliation. auditor, he will not be subject to challenge, and if challenged one of the judges must administer to him the oath above set out, but if he takes this oath he s entitled to the ballot of the party to which he has changed his affiliation, and entitled to vote that ballot.
