DISTRICT OR NONPARTISAN OFFICES AFTER PRIMARY. (1) Immediately after the
primary election canvass, the secretary of state shall issue certificates of
nomination to the political party candidates of each party who receive the
highest number of votes for their particular federal, state or district
office. The candidates so certified shall have their names placed on the
general election ballot.
    (2)  Immediately after the primary election canvass, the secretary of
state shall issue certificates of nomination to the nonpartisan candidate or
candidates who receive the highest number of votes for the number of vacancies
which are to be filled for a particular office and also to the same number of
candidates who receive the second highest number of votes for the particular
office. The candidates so certified shall have their names placed on the
general election ballot. If it appears from the canvass that a particular
candidate has received a majority of the total vote cast for the particular
office, he shall be issued a certificate of election instead of a certificate
of nomination and no candidates shall run for the particular office in the
general election.
