    (2) All county conventions of a political party shall be held on the same day throughout the

 for the state convention. The place and hour of meeting of a county convention shall be

 congressional district in the preceding primary election, the county chairperson, and the
 county secretary of the several political parties shall constitute a committee in each

 convention. The chairperson and secretary of the convention shall certify to the state central
 committee the names and addresses of the delegates elected, and, when certified, those
 delegates shall become the delegates from the district to the state convention.
