        49.15  COMMISSIONER TO DRAW UP ELECTION BOARD PANEL.

         1.  Not less than twenty days before each primary election, the
      commissioner shall draw up for each precinct an election board panel
      from which members of the precinct election board shall be appointed
      for each election held in the precinct during the ensuing two years.

         2. a.  Each panel shall include members of each of the
      political parties referred to in section 49.13, whose names may be
      designated by the county chairpersons of each of these political
      parties not less than thirty days prior to each primary election.
      The commissioner may place on the election board panel names of
      persons known by the commissioner to be members of these political
      parties, if the respective county chairpersons fail to designate a
      sufficient number of names, and may also add names of persons,
      whether or not they are members of either of these political parties,
      who have advised the commissioner they are willing to serve on the
      election board.
         b.  The commissioner may also place on the election board
      panel names of persons whom either the city council of a city of
      three thousand five hundred or less population or a school board has
      advised the commissioner at least thirty days before each primary
      election are willing to serve without pay at elections conducted for
      that school district or city, as the case may be, during the tenure
      of the election board panel on which these names are included.
         3.  In drawing up precinct election board panels, the commissioner
      may use student precinct election board members appointed pursuant to
      section 49.13, subsection 5.
