Description

In the Greene County preferential primary held on July 25, 1950, there were 7 candidates for the office of County Judge. Harvey Farrell received 2,083 votes, J. Moss Payne, 1,257 votes, and Ray Higgins, the appellant, 1,251 votes. Prior to the general primary election held in August, Payne withdrew from the race and requested George Barnhill, Chairman of the County Democratic Central Committee, to leave his name off the ballot at the general primary election. Barnhill conferred with Harvey McLerkin, Secretary of the Committee, and they complied with Payne's written request and did not place his name on the ballot for the next primary election. Just as soon as appellant, Ray Higgins, learned that Payne had withdrawn from the race, he requested that his name be placed on the ballot. This request was refused and Higgins filed a Petition for a Writ of Mandamus in the Chancery Court to compel the Committee to place his name on the general primary ballot. The court denied the Writ and Higgins has appealed.
