Description
We would only add that section 6-146 of the Election Law requires a candidate nominated by a political party other than of a party of which he is an enrolled member to accept or decline that nomination "in a certificate signed and acknowledged by him." The statute further provides that failure to comply will render the nomination null and void. We have repeatedly said that statutory commands as to matters of content must be strictly complied with. (Matter of Ruiz v Sachs, 43 N.Y.2d 894, 895; Matter of Hutson v Bass, 54 N.Y.2d 772, 774; Matter of Frome v Board of Elections of Nassau County, 57 N.Y.2d 741.) The courts enjoy no discretion to allow candidates to deviate from these legislative mandates.
