Order of names for absentee ballots for primary
Official statutory text
Immediately following the close of the filing period prescribed
by law, the Secretary of the State Election Board shall determine
the order in which the name of each candidate for each of the
offices shall appear on the absentee ballots printed for the Primary
Election. The determination shall be at a drawing conducted in a
public meeting in which the names of all candidates for each office
of each political party shall be drawn from a receptacle. In the
event that a candidate withdraws or is removed from the ballot as a
result of a successful contest of candidacy after the drawing is
conducted, the withdrawn or removed candidate shall be deleted and
the order of any remaining candidates in the race shall be adjusted
accordingly. The determination of the order of names of candidates
on absentee ballots printed by county election boards shall be made
in the same manner as provided heretofore for the State Election
Board.
