The editorial stated that the State Elections Board is
still considering LITTLE's charges, and they hope that the State
Board of Elections gives this matter the careful scrutiny that a,
heavily-disputed eight-vote margin seems to require.
In the June 14, 1974, issue of The Winston-Salem
Journal on Page 1 there appears an article entitled, “Little's
Bid for New Vote Is Denied by State Board.” The article reported
that LARRY LITTLE, Head of the BPP, was denied his request for
a new election in the Democratic Primary for the Winston-Salem
North Ward Alderman's Seat. The State Board of Elections has
denied LITTLE's request in a vote four to zero with one abstention.
The State Board indicated that there were lots of allegations, but
no evidence of any voting irregularities. LITTLE reportedly stated,
"We-.denounce the decision resolutely, thoroughly, wholly, and
“completely,” after hearing the results, and indicated that he
would consult with his lawyers to pursue "whatever action is |
available" to continue the protest.
LARRY LITTLE is, in all probability, going to initiate
a write-in campaign for the November elections in an effort to
obtain the North Ward Alderman Seat, and is not considering any
other legal action in an effort to disavow the previous primary, ,
vote.
