State v. Hill

I think the form of ballot was illegal, but that the remedy for it was mandamus to compel the preparation and submission of a legal ballot before the election was held. The election having been already held before any question was raised about it, or the declaration of its result based on the only practical way of declaring such result, I think the persons declared elected have sufficient title to the offices to withstand quo warranto.

WHITFIELD and BROWN, J. J., concur.
