MARVIN MANDEL, Governor                           2595 persons so designated to fill such vacancy, unless in his
judgment all of the persons shall be unfit or
incompetent. In such latter event he shall file a
written statement with the State Administrative Board of
Election Laws, setting forth the facts and the grounds
therefor, and shall call upon the committee for the
county or city, as the case may be, for an additional
list of at least four names of persons affiliated with
the political party of such [State] central committee and
from such supplementary list he shall make the particular
appointment. If a list or additional lists are not
submitted by the [State] central committee in accordance
herewith within twenty days after a request, then the
Governor may make such appointment from persons of his
own selection affiliated with the political party of the
[State] central committee. In no event shall more than
a total of three lists of any kind be submitted by any
one [State] central committee for any one position as a
regular or substitute member of a board. (e) In the event that the person appointed by the
Governor is rejected by the Senate or the House of
Delegates, as the case may be, the Governor shall appoint
another person from the list of names originally
submitted by the [State] central committee. If said
original list is exhausted by subsequent appointments of
the Governor and Senate or House rejection of all such
appointees, the Governor shall call upon the [State]
central committee for the county or city, as the case may
be, for a supplemental list of at least four names as
provided in subsection (d) hereof, from which list the
Governor shall make successive appointments until the
original and supplemental list are entirely exhausted. Appointments of regular and substitute members of
boards shall be made subject to confirmation by the
Senate of Maryland, except as provided in this
subsection. In Caroline, Dorchester and Kent counties,
at any time when there is no Senator elected from any one
of these counties who is a resident of the particular
county, the confirmation in such case shall be made by
the House of Delegates of Maryland. 4A-4. (c) In a State legislative district comprising
more than one county, or in a State delegate district
comprising more than one county, any vacancy occurring
because there is no candidate of a political party to
file for the office shall be filled by vote of the
[State] central committee in each of those counties in
the district. The [State] central committee of each
county involved shall cast a vote proportionate to its
share of the population of the district where the vacancy
exists. Such population shall be based on the most
recent decennial United States census. If one person
fails to receive a majority of the votes or if there is a
tie vote between or among the [State] central committees,
