to which the voter is inclined and with which the voter
desires to have himself recorded as affiliated. It shall be the
duty of the board of registry to explain to each voter that
the statement of such party affiliation does not bind him to
vote for the candidates of such party at any given election ;
also, that he has the right to decline to state any party affilia-
tion, but that no one who is not recorded upon the registry
as affiliated with a particular political party will be qualified
to vote at subsequent primary elections of said political
party. Whenever a voter declines to state his party affilia-
tion, the word "Declined" shall be written opposite his
name under such column, so that there shall be written
in such column, opposite the name of every registered
voter, either his party affiliation or the word "Declined."
And in all primary elections thereafter held, any person so
registered as affiliated with a given political party shall have
the right to receive and vote the official ballot of that party
and of no other. And at any intermediate registration sub-
sequent to the close of the next general registration, such
voter may appear before the board of registry, and, upon his
identity being established to the satisfaction of the majority
of the board of registry, he shall have the right to require
the said board of registry to make, alter or strike out any
entry in the column headed "Party Affiliations," opposite
his name in the registry. It shall be the duty of the board
of registry to enter in the column headed "Remarks" the
fact that such entry was made, altered or stricken out, and
the date thereof.
Approved April 2, 1906.
