additional lists are not submitted by the 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
central committee. In no event shall more than a total of
three lists of any kind be submitted by any one central
committee for any one position as a [regular] MEMBER or

Delegates, as the case may be, the Governor shall appoint
another person from the list of names originally submitted
by the 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 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)] (I) hereof, from which
list the Governor shall make successive appointments until
the original and supplemental list are entirely exhausted.

any time when there is no Senator elected from any one of

the confirmation in such case shall be made by the House of
Delegates of Maryland.
