Editor's notes.

Failure to take oath not ground for relief in equity.

- A complaint that an election manager failed to take the required oath shows a mere irregularity; and, where it was not alleged that this in any wise affected the result of the election, it would not therefore be a ground for relief in equity. Hughes v. Griner, 208 Ga. 47, 65 S.E.2d 24 (1951) (decided under former Code 1933, § 34-1202).
