Article 1. Members of California Elections Code >> Division 7. >> Part 5. >> Chapter 2. >> Article 1.
At each presidential primary election, members of central
committees may be elected in each county.
For the purposes of this chapter, the registration figures
used shall be those taken from the statement of voters and their
political affiliations transmitted by the elections officials to the
Secretary of State on the 135th day prior to the next presidential
primary election.
The number of members of central committees to be elected in
a county shall be the greater of either of the following:
(a) The number seven.
(b) The integer nearest the resulting quotient obtained by
dividing 400 times the number of Peace and Freedom Party registered
voters in the county by the number of Peace and Freedom Party
registered voters in the state.
However, the number of members of central committees to be elected
in a county shall be five if the number of Peace and Freedom Party
registered voters in the county is less than 150.
In each county where the number of members of central
committees to be elected is 12 or less, the members shall be elected
in a countywide, at large district. In each county where the number
to be elected is 13 or greater, the members shall be elected by
supervisorial district, except in Los Angeles County and in the City
and County of San Francisco, wherein the members shall be elected by
Assembly district.
The number to be elected from each supervisorial or Assembly
district shall be the greater of either of the following:
(a) The number one.
(b) The integer nearest the resulting quotient obtained by
dividing the number of members to be elected in that county times the
number of Peace and Freedom Party registered voters in the district
by the number of Peace and Freedom Party registered voters in the
county.
If the procedure outlined above would result in less members being
elected in a county than the number to which the county is entitled
under Section 7752, the calculation in subdivision (b) shall be
repeated using a number of Peace and Freedom Party registered voters
in the county sufficiently smaller than the actual number in the
county so as to give a total number of members of central committees
to be elected equal to or the nearest amount which is greater than
the number to which the county is entitled.
Each person receiving a Peace and Freedom Party nomination
for any partisan public office at the preceding direct primary
election or at any special election subsequent thereto shall be
declared elected as a member of central committees. Any members
elected pursuant to this section shall be in addition to the number a
county is entitled to elect pursuant to Section 7752.
