Interest In Idaho's primary election, which will be held tomorrow, centers on whether the , Kon-oartisan leacue can control the Democratic Dem-ocratic ticket. The Non-partisans have nominated a complete state ticket and have obtained the privilege of placing their candidates on the Democratic ballot. TonUht plans for the formation of two new parties are being formulated. The "regular" Democrats will put a full state ticket in the field as the Independent party, in case the Non-partisans capture their ticket. The other new party, to be known as the American party, will be composed of those groups' of both Republicans Re-publicans and Democrats who will insist upon their candidates repudiating Nonpartisan Non-partisan support. They plan a fusion ticket. The two new tickets will be launched under that, provision of the state's election elec-tion law which permits SO voters who have not -voted at the primary to nominate nom-inate by petition. The candidates so nominated must also have abstained from voting at the primaries. |
