<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Elections—Resilience of State Officers and Employees. A state officer or employee retains his residence, and has the right to vote, at the place where he lived when elected or appointed, if that be his intention, although, for the better discharge of his official duties, he may have removed therefrom with the intention of remaining away during his term of office or period of employment.</p> <p>2. - Right of State Officer or Employee to Change His Residence. The mere fact that a person is an officer or employee of the state or any municipal subdivision thereof does not affect his right to become a qualified elector at a place other than that where he resided when elected or appointed, if it be his intention to abandon his former place of residence.</p>
