In the city of New York there  shall  be  the  party  positions  of   assembly district leaders or, if the rules of the county committee shall   so  provide,  one  assembly  district  leader and one associate assembly   district leader. Outside the city  of  New  York  there  shall  be  such   positions  when the rules of the county committee shall so provide. Such   leaders shall be elected at primary elections as herein provided, within   every county in such city for each assembly district, or for  each  part   of  an assembly district within such county as may be designated for the   purpose in the rules of the county committee, and in every county of the   state outside of such city where the rules so provide, for such assembly   district or part thereof within such county as may be designated in such   rules for the purpose. Such assembly district leaders or  such  assembly   district  leader  and  associate  assembly  district  leader shall be of   opposite sexes, if the rules of the county committee shall  so  provide,   and  shall  be enrolled voters of the party residing within the assembly   district and, if the rules of the county  committee  shall  so  provide,   within  the  part  of  the  assembly  district  for which they are to be   elected, and shall be elected at the same primary election and  for  the   same  term  as  members  of  the  county  committee.  When any such rule   provides for equal representation of sexes,  the  designating  petitions   and  primary  ballots  shall  list  candidates  for such party positions   separately  by  sexes.  Each  shall  perform  such  duties,  powers  and   functions as the rules of the county committee may prescribe.  Vacancies   in such positions shall be filled by the members of the county committee   within  the assembly district or part thereof, as the case may be, until   the first primary election following the creation  of  such  vacancy  or   vacancies  for  which  the  period for circulating designating petitions   ends at  least  seven  days  after  the  creation  of  such  vacancy  or   vacancies,  at  which time the successor or successors shall be directly   elected as herein provided.  Assembly  district  leaders  and  associate   assembly  district leaders shall automatically be members and shall have   the right to participate and vote in meetings of the county committee or   any subcommittee thereof. The county committee may provide by its  rules   that  the members of the state committee, elected in accordance with the   provisions of  this  chapter,  shall  possess  the  duties,  powers  and   functions  of  an  assembly  district  leader  or  an associate assembly   district leader. In such event the provisions of this section shall  not   apply  to  the members of the state committee but upon his election as a   member of the state committee, such person shall be deemed to have  also   been  elected  as  an  assembly district leader or an associate assembly   district leader.3. To  be  eligible  for  election  as  assembly  district  leader  or   associate  assembly  district  leader at the first election next ensuing   after a readjustment  or  alteration  of  the  units  of  representation   becomes  effective,  a  candidate  must only have been a resident of the   county in which the unit, or any part  thereof,  is  contained  for  the   twelve months immediately preceding the election.
