The opinion
ORDER
GUTHRIE, Chief Justice.
Petition for rehearing having been filed by appellants, and the court having fully considered the same, but inasmuch as in the meantime Enrolled Act No. 131 relating to election procedures has been enacted by the Forty-Third Legislature and this amendment changes materially the provisions of §§ 22.1-389 and 22.1-401, W.S.1957, 1973 Cum.Supp., involved in the action; and it further appearing that further consideration of the Act as involved in-the action herein would have no effect upon existing rights, and that because of the amendment the action may be considered moot,
It is therefore ordered that the petition for rehearing be and the same is hereby denied.
