§ 2371. Nominees; notice to nominees
(a) The canvassing committee shall prepare and sign certificates of nomination and mail
or deliver in person to each candidate nominated a notice of his or her nomination
within two days after their meeting. On each certificate the canvassing committee
shall indicate the name, town of residence, party affiliation, and mailing address
of the candidate nominated. At the same time that they mail or deliver the certificates
of nomination, the canvassing committees shall also file with the office of the Secretary
of State a list showing the vote for each candidate of each party for each office.
(b) Unless a person who is notified of being nominated withdraws the candidacy, the person’s
name, residence, and party affiliation shall be printed upon the general election
ballot in the same manner as they appear in the notice of nomination; provided, however,
that within five days of the date of mailing or personal delivery a candidate may
request that an error in the candidate’s name, residence, or party affiliation be
corrected or that the candidate’s preference as to the candidate’s own name be used
on the ballot. The candidate shall also have the right to make the choice as set
forth in section 2474 of this title.
