    1-7        (a)  The county and senatorial district conventions shall be
    1-8  held on the third Saturday after general primary election day.
    1-9  However, if that date occurs during Passover or on the day
   1-10  following Good Friday, the conventions shall be held on the next

   1-13        SECTION 2.  This Act takes effect September 1, 1995.
   1-14        SECTION 3.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-15  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-16  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-17  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-18  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
