US Laws, Codes, Statutes & Cases

Any person examined as a witness on a contest of a nomination may be required to answer as to whether he voted at the primary and touching his qualification to vote thereat and to answer for whom he voted in the race concerned in the contest. If he swears falsely upon such contest to any material matter, he may be prosecuted for any perjury thereby committed, as defined by Section 13A-10-100; but if on such contest he makes full and true answers, any of which may incriminate or tend to incriminate him, he shall not be prosecuted in any court, either for voting in the primary or for any offense committed by him and disclosed by his answers.
