A candidate who receives more than one nomination for the same office, either from
more than one political party or from more than one group of petitioners, or from
one or more political parties and one or more groups of petitioners, shall have his
name printed on the official general election ballot in only one column to be selected
by him from among the columns to which his nominations entitle him, and shall have
such designations after his name as he shall select, consisting of the names of the
political parties nominating him, with the words “Indorsed By”, if he so desires,
and the several designations to which he is entitled by the other nominations, if
any, and printed in such order as he shall select. The candidate shall file with the secretary of state or county clerk, as the case
may be, his selection of his column, and the designations to follow his name and their

column and with what designations his name shall be printed. The designations shall be printed in small type, and if necessary, in several lines
or in a line below his name and may be abbreviated.
