BRACHTENBACH, J.
Petitioners each attempted to file a declaration of candidacy for precinct committeeman. Their filings were refused by the King County Director of Elections because of their failure to sign the loyalty oath required by RCW 29.18.030. The statutory oath contains three separate clauses, discussed hereafter. We agree with petitioners that the oath is unconstitutional as to two of the three clauses and grant appropriate relief.
