1036 ELECTIONS. [ART. 33

1904, ch. 339.

55. The form and arrangement of ballot shall be as follows :
All ballots shall contain the name of every candidate whose
nomination for any office specified in the ballots has been cer-
tified and filed according to the provisions of this article, and
not withdrawn in accordance herewith. The names of candi-
dates for every office shall, except in case of candidates for
presidential electors, be arranged under the designation of
the officer. Above the group of names of the candidates for
each office, and upon a separate line immediately beneath the
designation of the office, there shall be printed, in bold, plain,
Roman capitals, twelve point (pica) type, an appropriate
direction or instruction to the voter, informing him of the
number of persons for whom he may lawfully vote for the par-
ticular office mentioned immediately above each such direction,
thus : "Vote for one," or "vote for two," or "vote for six," as
the case may be. To the name of each candidate for State
office or candidate for congress shall be added the name of the
county or city in which the candidate resides. Ballots shall
be so printed as to give to each voter a clear opportunity to
designate by a cross (X) in a square at the right of the name of
each candidate, and at the right of each question his choice of
candidate and his answer to such question. Such square shall
be at least one-half of on inch in size. If a candidate is named
for the same office on two or more certificates of nomination,
his name shall be printed on the ballot but once. The names
of candidates for the offices of election of president and vice-
president of the United States shall be arranged in groups,
as presented in the several certificates of nomination papers,
and the several groups shall be arranged in such order of the
surnames of the candidates for president as the several boards
of supervisors shall prescribe in the city of Baltimore and in
the several counties, respectively. If candidates for presiden-
tial' electors are nominated at large and for the several con-
gressional districts, the name and place of the residence of the
candidates at large shall be put at the head of each group, and
the names of the other candidates, with their places of resi-
dence,'including the numbers of the congressional district in
which they reside, shall follow in numerical order. The sur-
name of the candidates of each political party for the office of
president and vice-president shall be placed above the group
of candidates for elections of such party. There shall be left
at the right of the surname of the candidates for president and
vice-president, so formed as to include both names, and to the
