before the first (1st) day of January of any year in which a Commissioner
of Election is to be appointed. Such certificate shall be filed by
the chairman or secretary of the county committee of the political
party of which he or she is a member and by which he or she is being
recommended for appointment. Such recommendation shall be made by

The term of office of an election commissioner shall be four
(4) years, beginning January first (1st) of the odd-numbered year
next succeeding his or her appointment.
If at any time a vacancy occurs in the office of any election
commissioner, other than by expiration of term of office, such vacancy
shall be filled as hereinabove provided for the regular appointment
of a commissioner, except that a person who fills a vacancy shall
hold such office during the remainder of the term of the commissioner
in whose place he or she shall serve. A certificate of party recommendation
to fill such vacancy shall be filed not later than forty-five (45)
days after the creation of such vacancy.
