The opinion

LARSEN, Justice,

dissenting.

I join in Mr. Justice Nix’s dissenting opinion. The Act is clearly unconstitutional; in a democracy free citizens ought and should be able to vote for each and every one of their (now “alleged”) elected officials. Sadly, the majority has decided otherwise.
