Question No. 2


LAW PROPOSED BY INITIATIVE PETITION


Shall the proposed law, which provides for an additional method of nominating candidates for nomination, at the state primaries in September, by members of political parties, for those offices to be filled by all the voters of the Commonwealth at a state election.


It provides that the state conventions of the political parties, in each state election year, shall be held before and not after the state primaries, as now, namely, not later than June 15. In


57


order to elect delegates to such party conventions, party prim- aries are established to be held on the last Tuesday in April. Among other things, these state conventions may endorse candi- dates for offices to be filled by all the voters and to be voted upon at the state primaries. Such endorsement places a candi- date in nomination, at such state primaries, without the neces- sity of filing nomination papers. The name of the endorsed candidate is to be placed first on the ballot and against his name is to be placed the words "Endorsed by (the name of political party) convention" in addition to the eight-word statement now authorized by law. Candidates endorsed by a party conven- tion may accept said endorsement within ten days, and having so accepted may not withdraw.
