having been seconded, the Chair will com-
ment briefly.
The sentence as it stands now provides

the county in which he offers to vote for
three months next preceding an election
shall be eligible to vote and if registered
shall be qualified to vote in all national,
state, and county elections held in this
State.

if he possesses the age and state residen-
tial qualifications and those of the county
