A delegate ballot must be voted in the same manner as ballots bearing the names of the candidates for other county offices. The returns must be made direct to the county clerk, who shall canvass the ballots and immediately notify the successful candidates by first-class mail at the address given in their affidavit of identity. The county clerk shall, at the same time, furnish the chairperson of the county committee of each political party with the names and addresses of the delegates to the county convention of the chairperson’s political party as required in section 608. However, in case of a tie vote between the candidates for delegate in any precinct, the county clerk shall notify the candidates to appear in his or her office at a specified time, and the successful candidate must be determined by drawing in a manner similar to that provided in section 851. If a candidate is elected whose name is not printed on the ballots, the county clerk shall determine if the candidate is a registered elector in that precinct.
