Limitations Upon The Power Of The Legislature To Control Political Parties And Their Primaries, Alonzo H. Tuttle Mar 1903

Limitations Upon The Power Of The Legislature To Control Political Parties And Their Primaries, Alonzo H. Tuttle

Michigan Law Review

The convention system of nominating candidates for public office is, in a great degree, peculiar to the United States. England has in recent years borrowed in part our caucus, but as late as 1893, a writer in the American Law Regisieri says: "A nomination is made in the British dominions by a paper filed by one person and one or a very few seconders." Nor have we always had the convention system here. The first national nominating convention was held in Baltimore, by the anti- Masonic party, on September 26, 1831.
