of the party officers authorized to fill vacancies in
nomination pursuant to Section 10-11.
Nomination papers filed under this Section are not valid
if the candidate named therein fails to file a statement of
economic interests as required by the Illinois Governmental
Ethics Act in relation to his candidacy with the appropriate
officer by the end of the period for the filing of nomination
papers unless he has filed a statement of economic interests
in relation to the same governmental unit with that officer
during the same calendar year as the year in which such
nomination papers were filed. If the nomination papers of any
candidate and the statement of economic interest of that
candidate are not required to be filed with the same officer,
the candidate must file with the officer with whom the
nomination papers are filed a receipt from the officer with
whom the statement of economic interests is filed showing the
date on which such statement was filed. Such receipt shall be
so filed not later than the last day on which nomination papers
may be filed.
