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 order to elect delegates to such party conventions, party primaries are established to be held on the last Tuesday in April. Among other things, these state conventions may endorse candidates for offices to be filled by all the voters and to be voted upon at the


78


state primaries. Such endorsement places a candidate in nomination, at such state primaries, without the necessity 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 convention may accept said endorse- ment within ten days, and having so accepted may not withdraw.


It also provides for the election of district members of state committees and members of ward and town com --- mittees at the proposed party primaries in April, as well as delegates to the state party conventions, instead of at the state primaries in September, as now.


It also provides for the election of delegates to national conventions (to nominate candidates for President) at the proposed party primaries instead of at the primaries, now specially held for that purpose, and which existing law requires to be held on the last Tuesday in April (the same day proposed for the proposed party primaries).


It also provides for certain other new provisions of law and certain changes in existing laws, relating to holding state conventions and party primaries, the num- ber and election of delegates to state convention, the number of members at large of a state committee, and other matters, which in more detail chiefly are as fol- lows:


State conventions are to be composed solely of dele- gates elected at the party primaries, and the number is to be one from each ward and town and one additional for every fifteen hundred votes or major fraction there- of above the first fifteen hundred votes cast at the pre- ceding state election in such ward or town for the poli-


79


tical party candidate for Governor, instead of a number now fixed by the state committee of each party (not less than one from each ward or town) and certain members designated by existing law.


The time, for notice to the State Secretary by aldermen or selectmen of their determination to hold primaries by wards, precincts or groups of precincts, to be March 1, instead of August 1, as now.


The names of candidates for election for delegates to a state convention and for district members of a state committee to be arranged individually by alphabet instead of in groups arranged by lot, as now.


Vacancies in the office of delegate to a state or national convention not to be filled except in case of a tie vote, and then by delegates from the same district, within ten days, and if no other delegate or if not so filled, then by a state committee, rather than solely by the remaining members of the delegation; and statement of filling of such vacancy to be filed with the State Secretary.


Seating of delegates at state conventions to be in groups by senatorial districts, and order of business at said conventions defined.


Voting on candidates, by a convention, to be by roll call, if more than one candidate for the office, or by groups of delegates unless any member of such group objects.


The number of members at large of a state committee of a political party to be fixed by the state convention of a party instead of by the state committee, as now.


The existing provisions as to preparation and filing of nomination papers, objections to nominations, prepara- tion, number, substance, arrangement and form of bal-


80


lots, hours during which polls shall be open, opening of ballot boxes, canvass and return of votes, return and certification of votes, now applicable to state primaries to be applicable to the proposed party primaries.


The power of a state committee to fix the number of district delegates to a national convention to be continued, but the date, or giving notice to the State Secretary, of such fixation to be March 1 instead of on or before the third Wednesday in March, as now. Yes


The power of city and town committees to fix the number of members of ward and town No committees to be continued, but the date, of giving notice to the State Secretary, of such fixation to be March 1 instead of August 1, as now, which was ap- proved in the Senate by a vote of 21 in the affirmative and 17 in the negative and was disapproved in the House of Representatives by a vote of 62 in the affirmative and 138 in the negative, be approved ?


QUESTION NO. 3

PETITION FOR RECOUNT FOR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR


November 12, 1932.


To the Registrars of Voters of the Town of Braintree:


We the undersigned voters of the Town of Braintree represent that we have reason to believe and do believe that the records or copies of records made by the Election Officers of said Town of the ballots cast at the ELEC- TION on November 8, 1932 for the office of Lieutenant Governor are erroneous in this respect: That Gaspar G. Bacon of Boston was credited with more votes than were cast for him, and John E. Swift of Milford was credited with less votes than were cast for him, and we believe that a recount of the ballots cast in said Town will affect the election of


Gaspar G. Bacon of Boston, Morris I. Becker of Boston, James W. Dawson of Boston, Walter S. Hutchins of Greenfield, and John E. Swift of Milford, Candidates for Lieutenant Governor, voted for at such election.


We therefore ask that the votes cast for such candi- dates for Lieutenant Governor be recounted.


The foregoing petition was signed by Dennis J. Burke and seventeen other registered voters of the Town of Braintree.


A true copy. Attest :


ERNEST C. WOODSUM, Town Clerk.
