presidential electors are nominated at large and for the several congres-

other candidates, with their places of residence, including the members
of the congressional districts in which they reside, shall follow in numer-
ical order. The surname of the candidates of each political party for
the office of president and vice-president shall be placed above the group

right of the surname of the candidates for president and vice-president
so formed as to include both names, and to the right of the name of
each elector, a sufficient clear square in which each voter may designate,

as far as possible, be placed in one column, but where the names to be
printed upon the ticket are over thirty-six, then another column shall be
added in which names shall be printed, and when two or more columns
are used the same number of names shall, as far as possible, be printed
in each column, and the initial letter of the given or Christian name of
the several candidates in each column shall be printed directly beneath
each other in a vertical line. A constitutional amendment or any ques-

column with the names of the candidates. This section shall apply to
Worcester, Somerset, Talbot, Kent, Dorchester, Prince George's,
Charles, St. Mary's, Calvert, Anne Arundel and Queen Anne's counties.
