after the deadline for qualifying, the county executive committee
of each political party shall certify to the superintendent and the
state executive committee of each political party shall certify to
the Secretary of State, on forms prescribed by the Secretary of
State, all those candidates who have qualified with such committee
for the succeeding primary election. Such certification shall be
accompanied by the appropriate amount of the qualifying fees paid
by such candidates as prescribed in paragraph (1) or (2) of
subsection (c) of Code Section 21-2-131 and a copy of the
declaration of candidacy and affidavit of each such candidate. Such

Section 21-2-153, the election superintendent shall certify at or

superintendent. (b) Any
candidate whose name does not appear on the list of candidates
posted by a county executive committee or the state executive
committee pursuant to subsection (d) of Code Section 21-2-153 shall
not be certified under this Code section; provided, however, that
the name of a candidate who has properly qualified whose name has
been left off of the list of candidates through inadvertence or
clerical error may be placed upon such list upon the filing of an
affidavit by the county executive committee or the state executive
committee, as appropriate, attesting to such inadvertence or error.
The county executive committee of each political party shall attach
to its certification a copy of the affidavits required by paragraph
(2) of subsection (b) of Code Section 15-6-50, paragraph (2) of
subsection (a) of Code Section 15-9-2, subparagraph (c)(2)(A) of
