Opinion

Per Curiam.

The record shows that relator received 6 of 11 votes of the regularly elected delegates in a regularly constituted convention. Respondent Edward McNamara received 5 votes in a seceding body of 5. Under these circumstances, it is clear that relator is entitled to a place on the regular republican ticket, and that respondent is entitled to no place upon the official ballot. Beck v. Election Com'rs, 103 Mich. 192; Potter v. Deuel, 149 Mich. 393.
