    A general nonpartisan primary election shall be held in every county of this state on the
 Tuesday succeeding the first Monday in August preceding every general November election at
 which judges of probate are to be elected, at which time the qualified and registered electors
 may vote for nonpartisan candidates for the office of judge of probate. If upon the expiration
 of the time for filing petitions or incumbency affidavits of candidacy for the primary election
 of said probate judges in any county it shall appear that there are not to exceed twice the
 number of candidates as there are persons to be elected, then the county clerk shall certify to
 the county board of election commissioners the name of such candidate for probate judge
 whose petitions have been properly filed and such candidate shall be the nominee for the judge
 of probate and shall be so certified. As to such office, there shall be no primary election and
 this office shall be omitted from the judicial primary ballot.
