Effective: July 14, 2000

History: Amended 2000 Ky. Acts ch. 493, sec. 5, effective July 14, 2000. -- Amended 1994 Ky. Acts ch. 479, sec. 1, effective April 11, 1994. -- Created 1993 (1st Extra. Sess.) Ky. Acts ch. 4, sec. 20, effective September 16, 1993. Legislative Research Commission Note (7/14/2000). The extraneous phrase "date he became a candidate as defined in KRS 6.611" at the end of subsection (1)(a) of this statute could not be removed from the amended version of this statute in codification even though its deletion was specified in the drafter's version for 2000 Ky. Acts. ch. 493 (House Bill 712) because the indicated bracketing and striking through of the phrase was inadvertently overlooked in the preparation and proofing of the bill for introduction. Cf. KRS 446.145(1) and 446.280.
