There is a rebuttable presumption that the signer of a petition filed pursuant to chapter 2-1 , 6-16 , 7-18A , 9-13 , 9-20 , 12-6 , 12-7 , or 13-7 is not a qualified elector if the signer's name fails to appear on the active or inactive voter registration list of the county stated on the petition as the signer's county of registration on the date the petition was signed. This rebuttable presumption may only be overcome by clear and convincing evidence presented by the petition sponsor, circulator, or candidate.
