Baer v. Gore

Lynch, Judge:

Between Ira P. Baer and William Gore has arisen a controversy as to which of them received a plurality of votes cast in the June primary election for nomination as a .candidate for justice of the peace of Logan district, Logan county, to be voted for in the general election to be held November 7, 1916. The returns of the election, as ascertained by the commissioners and clerks conducting it, and by the county court as a board of canvassers, showed a plurality in favor of Gore, while upon appeal the circuit court found Baer nominated as a candidate, and not Gore, who assigns error.
