The integer next larger than the quotient obtained by that division shall constitute the number of members of the committee to be elected by that party in that supervisor district.(b) The Santa Clara County Central Committee shall be composed of not less than 23 members. If the procedure outlined above would result in less than 23 members being elected to the committee, the number of votes cast for this party's candidate in each supervisor district shall be divided by an amount sufficiently smaller than one-twenty-second of the votes cast for Governor in Santa Clara County as to give a membership on the committee equal to or the nearest amount that is greater than 23 members.Added by Stats 2002 ch 257 (SB 1436),s 2, eff. 1/1/2003.
