No Second Primary Likely To He Called Hy Any County Candidates More than 8,000 Haywood voters trekked to the polls Saturday and cast votty in what was one of the quietest elections ever held in Hay-, wend county, The vote was also re cord breaking, exceeding the number cast in the 1934 election by more than five hundred. Kufus Siler, candidate for member of the board of trustees of the Hay wood County Hospital, led the ticket, with a total of Willi votes. John Cube, candidate, for represen tative, was second, with 4702, and Glenn Palmer, -candidate' for commis sioner, was third, with 4347. The board of elections, which com pleted its tabulation Wednesday morning, declared the following as Ingh men in the Roproscntat ive Register of Francis. Sheriff R. V. Welch. Hospital Board - Rufits Siler ('. L. Westmoreland. Board of Commissioners: District 1 -Clarence Medford Grover Rogers. District - --T. Ralph Moore. District 3 J. A. Ixiwe and Jarviss Allison, District 4 R. T. Boyd. District !-Glohn C. Palmer. Constable in' Waynesville Township .John Kerley. The closest race on the entire tick et Was that between Charles C. Francis and Edwin, llayniy for the office of Register id Deeds. As the votes- began to cflitu' in Saturday , night, .first one and then the other was in the lead, and even on Sunday morning the winner could not be defi nitely determined. The final count, however, as issued by the board of elections, gave Francis 4,0.rf Votes and Ilaynes 3,702. Due to the fact that the nominee for sheriff did not receive a ma jority of the votes ;Hst, there has lecn much speculation as to whether a second primary will be called. No definite statement has been made for publication, regarding a second pri mary for the office of she-riff, but it has been -learned', from a reliable source that "then' will be no second primary for county offices," In the race, for state offices, most of the interest centered around that between the candidate for governor. Hoey carried the county with 3,2!H votes. Graham was a close second, with 2,991, while McDonald took third place, with 1,738. All indications are that there will he a second primary in the race for governor.
