The name of no  candidate for an office to  be filled by the electors of the entire state shall be placed upon the  official ballot unless his name is duly certified to the county clerk  upon a certificate signed by the members of the State Board of  Elections. The names of group candidates on petitions shall be certified  to the several county clerks in the order  in which such names appear on such petitions filed with  the State Board of Elections.Except as otherwise provided in this Code, not less than 68 days before the date of the general election, each  county clerk shall certify the names of each of the candidates for county  offices whose nomination papers, certificates of nomination or resolutions  to fill a vacancy in nomination have been filed with such clerk and declare  that the names of such candidates for the respective offices shall be  placed upon the official ballot for the general election in the same manner  and in the same order as shown upon the certification.  Each county clerk  shall place a copy of the certification on file in his or her office and at  the same time issue to the State Board of Elections a copy of such  certification.

The county clerk or board of election commissioners  shall print  the names of the nominees on the ballot for each office in the order in  which they are certified to or filed with the county clerk; provided,  that in printing the name of nominees for any office, if any of such  nominees have also been nominated by one or more political parties  pursuant to this Act, the location of the name of such candidate on the  ballot for nominations made under this Article shall be precisely in the  same order in which it appears on the certification of the State Board  of Elections to the county clerk.For the general election,  the candidates of new political parties shall be placed on the ballot for  said election after the established political party candidates  and in the order of new political party petition filings.Each certification shall indicate, where applicable, the following:(1) The political party affiliation if any, of the     candidates for the respective offices;(2) If there is to be more than one candidate elected     to an office from the State, political subdivision or district;(3) If the voter has the right to vote for more than     one candidate for an office;(4) The term of office, if a vacancy is to be filled     for less than a full term or if the offices to be filled in a political subdivision are for different terms.The State Board of Elections or the county clerk, as the case may be,  shall issue an amended certification whenever it is discovered that the  original certification is in error.
