The provisions of KRS 118.125 shall not apply to any eligible person serving in
the Armed Forces of the United States while this country is at war. The name
of such person shall be printed on the official ballot of his party for an office for
which he is eligible in any primary election when an application has been filed
on his behalf by two (2) reputable electors of the party at whose hands he
seeks the nomination.
Such application shall be accompanied by a statement signed by the proposed
candidate authorizing the action of the electors.
The application and the candidate's statement, herein mentioned, shall be filed
in good faith and with the proper officer at the proper time, as provided for
other candidates in primary elections.
The form of such application shall be similar to that of the affidavits required of
electors in behalf of other candidates as provided in KRS 118.125.
Before such a successful candidate is given a certificate of nomination, he
shall file with the county clerk of the county in which he resides a statement
that during the campaign for the nomination he did not, and while a candidate
for the office will not, knowingly violate any election law or any law relating to
corrupt and fraudulent practice in campaigns or elections in this state, and if
elected will qualify for the office.
