second circuit, and the judge so elected shall be subject to the
same constitutional provision, hold his office for the same
term of years, receive the same compensation and have the
same powers as are herein provided for the other associate
judges in the second circuit.

The additional judge for the sixth circuit herein provided
for and elected by the qualified voters of Federick and Mont-
gomery Counties at the 1938 election in accordance with the
terms of the Constitutional Amendment heretofore submitted
and adopted shall be subject to the same constitutional pro-
visions, receive the same compensation and have the same
powers as are herein provided for the other associate judges in
the sixth circuit and his successors shall be appointed and/or
elected in accordance with the constitutional provisions relating
to judges. The Chief Judge may be elected from either Fred-
erick or Montgomery Counties, but when the Chief Judge is
elected from Frederick County one of the associate judges
shall be a resident of said county and the two remaining as-
sociate judges shall be residents of Montgomery County
and when the Chief Judge is elected from Montgomery County
one of the associate judges shall be a resident of said Mont-
gomery County and the remaining two associate judges resi-
dents of Frederick County. In case any candidate or candidates
for associate judge at any judicial election held in the sixth
judicial circuit shall receive sufficient votes to cause' such can-
didate or candidates to be declared elected, but the election of
such candidate or candidates would cause more associate
judges than herein permitted to reside in any county of said
circuit, then and in that event only that candidate or those
candidates, as the case may be, residing in said county in the
order of the votes received shall be declared elected whose
election would provide the permitted number of associate
judges from said county and the candidate or candidates, as
the case may be, residing in the other county, and not similarly
disqualified, who shall have the next highest number of votes
in said election shall be declared elected. If, by reason of such
a condition or by reason of an equal vote for two or more can-
didates a sufficient number of associate judges duly qualified
as to residence as above set out should not be elected at any
election in said sixth judicial circuit, then it shall be the duty
of the Governor to order a new election for such unfilled office
or offices.

The additional associate judge for the seventh circuit here-
in provided for shall be appointed by the Governor immediately
after the adoption of this amendment and shall serve until the
first general election for members of the General Assembly
that shall be held in said circuit subsequent to the adoption
of this amendment, at which election his successor shall be
