§ 2370. Write-in candidates
A write-in candidate shall not qualify as a primary winner unless he receives at least one-half the number of votes required for his office on a primary petition, except that if a write-in candidate receives more votes than a candidate whose name is printed on the ballot, he may qualify as a primary winner. The write-in candidate who qualifies as a primary winner under this section must still be determined a winner under section 2369 of this title before he becomes the party's candidate in the general election. (Added 1977, No. 269 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
