Members of the Maryland Democratic State Central Committee pledge "that we are determined in Baltimore to do" all that is necessary for the Polk-Dallas ticket. This includes "the presence of Vigilance Committees at the opening of the Polls, and their continuance there until after the counting of the votes."
