Sec. 3.1-25-45.
Nomination; determination by lot.
If, upon the
canvass
of the returns of the primary election
specified in Section 3.1-25-20, the canvassing board finds that there are tied
candidates for president or trustee so that the appropriate number of
candidates
receiving the highest number of votes cannot be determined, the canvassing
board shall determine by lot which of the tied candidates shall be nominated
for the positions for which they are tied.
In these cases the canvassing board shall issue to the tied candidates
written notice of the tie vote, stating in the notice the place, the day (which
shall not be more than 5 days thereafter), and the hour when the nomination
is to be so determined.
