Nominations for candidates to fill vacancies in county or county district offices; primary elections. Nominations for candidates to fill vacancies in county or county district offices shall be made upon dates to be fixed by the county executive committee for county or county district offices. The first and second primaries shall be held on the dates to be fixed by such executive committees, which committees shall also fix the dates when the returns are to be made of the results of such primaries. If there is not sufficient time, after the election is ordered, for the holding of second primary to fill such vacancies, on account of the nearness of the election, from the date at which it is ordered, the executive committee having such nomination in charge, may submit the result to the first primary election, the nomination going to the candidate receiving the highest popular vote. Such special primary election shall be conducted, as far as applicable, under the laws governing other primary elections.
