Report to Secretary of the State.

See Sec. 9-406a re penalty for fraudulent certification. Cited. 232 C. 65. Compliance with section is evidenced by date of delivery of certificate to Secretary of the State and not by date of candidate's mailing of certificate; use of word “invalid” means that section's provisions are mandatory; legislature evidenced a clear intent to require strict compliance with section's filing deadline such that neither Secretary of the State nor the court can extend the deadline due to unintentional noncompliance; failure to strictly comply with section yields harsh consequence such that the name of endorsed incumbent probate judge will not appear on ballot. 298 C. 665.
