OPINION

YOUNG, Justice.

This is an election contest. Both parties, Robert M. Goodman and Herman Wise, who were candidates for the office of City Commissioner of Harlingen, Texas, bring appeals from the judgment of the trial court. Contestee Goodman challenges the constitutionality of the bond filing requirements of the Texas Election Code arts. 9.09-9.13 (1967). Contestant Wise challenges certain voter irregularities in the election. The trial court found that Mr. Goodman was the duly elected candidate and denied all other claims for relief of the parties. We affirm.

The election was held on…
