The State Administrative Board of Election Laws, created by
Chapter 556, Acts of IMS, exercises supervision over the conduct of
elections in the State.
The Board consists of five members appointed by the Governor by
and with the advice and consent of the Senate for four year terms.
Three members must be of the same political party as the Governor,
while two members represent the party which received the second
greatest number of votes in the most recent gubernatorial election.
The Board selects its own officers.
The Governor also appoints the State Administrator of Election
Laws for a six-year term.
The Board assumed all powers and duties formerly vested in the
Secretary of State with regards to elections. It adopts rules and regu-
lations to assist the local Boards of Supervisors of Elections with
regards to elections, voting, and voter registration. The Board is to
keep election records and make an annual report to the General
Assembly (Code 1957, 1971 Repl. Vol., Art. 33, Bees. 1A-I, 18-1, 18-2).
