1366 LAWS OF MARYLAND. [CH. 780

The Board of Supervisors of Elections in each county of the
State and of Baltimore City shall cause to be printed upon the
Presidential primary election ballots in each of said counties
, and in each legislative district of Baltimore City, and beneath
. the name or group of names of any qualified candidate or

candidates for the nomination of President of any of such
parties and distinctly separated by appropriate line from the
name or names of such qualified candidates and in plainly
legible type the words "For An Uninstructed Delegation" and
to the right thereof a square for the cross-mark of the voter in
the same manner and relative location as the square for the
cross-mark is printed to the right of the name of any candidate
upon the primary election ballots as in this sub-title provided,
so that such voters of the party who wish to vote for an unin-
structed delegation to the national convention of their party
may do so; and if it shall appear upon the count and canvass

of the votes cast in said primary election that a greater num-
ber of votes have been cast in such primary election in any
county of the State or legislative district of Baltimore City
in favor of an uninstructed delegation than for any candidate
in said primary for the nomination for President, the Super-
/visors of Election and Board of Canvassers for such county
'or legislative district shall so certify and the delegation from
each county or legislative district in the State convention of
the party shall vote in such State convention for an unin-
structed delegation to the national convention as long as in
their conscientious judgment it shall appear to them that there
is any possibility of a majority of the members of such State
convention voting for an uninstructed delegation; and if it
shall so appear to any such delegation that there is no such
possibility, they shall vote in their discretion for instructions
upon the part of the State convention for such person for the
candidate of their party for President as they may deem
wisest.

Any vacancy which may exist in the delegation of any of
such parties to any such national convention shall be filled in
the manner prescribed by Section 241 with respect to the filling

of vacancies.

235. Official ballots shall be prepared and printed for such
primary elections in Baltimore City and in the several counties,
respectively, by the said several Boards of Supervisors of
Elections for said city and said several counties, respectively,
as is now provided by this Article for general elections, except
as otherwise provided for in this sub-title, and except that on
the back and outside of all such official ballots shall be printed
only the words "Official Ballot For, " followed by the designa-
tion of the county, congressional, legislative or councilmanic
. district of Baltimore City or other district, as the case may be,
