Book excerpt: Excerpt from Registration and Election Laws of Maryland: Including All Amendments to and Including the Acts of the General Assembly of 1914; Also Containing the Primary Election Law, the Senatorial Primary Law, and the Corrupt Practices Law 1. The Governor shall biennially appoint, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, if in session, and if not in session, then the Governor alone shall appoint, in each and every county of the State, and in the city of Baltimore, three persons, who shall constitute and be styled "The Boards of Supervisors of Elections of the respective counties and of said city." Said supervisors shall be residents and voters in their respective counties, or in the city of Baltimore, as the case may be, and two of them shall always be selected from the two leading political parties of the State, one from each of said parties. They shall be men of high character and integrity, and of recognized business capacity. Before appointing such supervisors of elections the Governor shall request the State Central Committees representing each of the two leading political parties of the State, in each county and in said city, as the case may be, to designate at least four eligible candidates for the position of supervisors of elections, in their respective counties and in said city, and the Governor shall appoint one of the persons so designated for any particular county or for said city, unless in his judgment, all of said persons shall be unfit or incompetent for said position, in which case he shall file a written statement to that effect with the Secretary of State, setting forth such fact, and the grounds therefor, and thereupon he shall call upon said committee for the city or county, as the case may be, for another list of six names, and from said list and the original list he shall make the appointment.
