In a county in which no additional members are provided for by\nthe rules of the county committee or the statement filed pursuant hereto\nthe voting power of each member shall be in proportion to such party\nvote or, if the election district which such member represents was\ncreated or changed since the last election for member of assembly,\nproportional to such party enrollment. In a county in which additional\nmembers are so provided for, on the basis of the party vote or\nenrollment in election districts within such county, each member shall\nhave one vote. Each member of a county committee shall be an enrolled\nvoter of the party residing in the county and the assembly district from\nwhich or in the assembly district containing the election district in\nwhich such member is elected except that a member of a county committee\nwho, as a result of an alteration of assembly district lines, no longer\nresides within such assembly district may continue to serve for the\nbalance of the term to which he was elected.\n 2. If such committee or a state convention of the party shall provide\nby rule for representation by gender on such committee, the rules of\nsuch committee relative to additional members, either from election\ndistricts or at large, shall be formulated and applied in such manner\nthat the whole membership shall be divided among genders as provided by\nthe rules of such committee.
