Opinion of the Court — Per Curiam

Per Curiam, The five Judges who heard this appeal all agree that it must be dismissed. We have held in a number of cases that: “While the granting or refusal of a preliminary injunction is the subject of appeal, yet in such case we refrain from a discussion of the merits of the litigation and merely determine whether, under the facts presented in the court below, there was a reasonable ground for its action”:

Holden v. Llewellyn et al., 262 Pa. 400 , at pp. 402 and 403.

* The questions involved come from the Election Code of June 3, 1937, P. L. 1333, and we find that the court below had “reasonable ground for its action.”

Appeal dismissed.
