LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 338

(3)   If after the expiration of the time for
filing petitions, there are more than two nominees for the
county Board of Education for each member to be elected, the
board of supervisors of elections shall provide the means
whereby all duly registered voters of Charles County,
irrespective of party affiliation, may vote for the nominees
for the county Board of Education at a primary election to
be held at the time and place for holding the primary
elections of the political parties. In taking the ballot,
voting machines shall be used. However, if the number of
candidates submitted for vote at the primary elections is
too large for the practical use of voting machines, the
board of supervisors of elections shall supply paper ballots
in the usual form for use in voting for such offices. The
14 persons, among those whose names are duly placed on
primary ballots as candidates for nomination to the county
Board of Education who receive the largest number of votes
at the primary election, shall be the duly nominated
candidates for election to the respective county Board of
Education offices. The board of canvassers for Charles
County upon the completion of its canvass of voters at the
primary election shall determine who are the duly nominated
candidates for election to the respective Board of Education
offices under the provisions of this section and shall
certify their names to the board of supervisors of elections
of Charles County. Any person who has qualified under this
section as a candidate for nomination to the county Board of
Education, and who shall by virtue of the provisions of this
section, be required to run in a primary election, may on or
before 45 days preceding the primary election in a writing
signed by him and acknowledged before an officer duly
authorized to take acknowledgments under the laws of
Maryland, notify the board of supervisors of elections of
Charles County that he desires to withdraw as a candidate
for nomination. The petition of candidacy as to any
candidate so withdrawing shall be void, and his name shall
not be placed on the ballot for the primary election. If
the withdrawal of any candidate reduces the nominees to less
than 15, the board of supervisors of elections shall certify
the appropriate replacement number from the remaining
candidates as provided by subsection (c)(2) of this section,
if possible. No person shall be certified as a candidate
who is subject to the authority of the Board of Education.

(4)  The seven persons among the maximum of 14
whose names are placed on the general election ballot as
candidates for election to the county Board of Education who
receive the largest number of votes in the election shall be
elected to the county Board of Education.

(c) The seven members of the Board shall be elected at
large in Charles County.]

[32-3A.
