When the ballots are returned to the commission, they shall be opened on a day designated in the notification forwarded the duly licensed barbers of Mor-gan County in the presence of the commissioners of the Barbers’ Commission for Morgan County then serving, and the ballots shall be counted, and the names of the three barbers who shall receive the greatest number of votes shall be selected as the three nominees of the commission and the commission shall then certify to the Governor the names of the three barbers receiving the highest number of votes, and the Governor shall appoint one of the three persons thus designated to fill the vacancy created. (3) If more than one vacancy exists at any time, there shall be nominated in the manner hereinabove designated and certified to the Governor three nominees for each vacancy so that if there be one vacancy there shall be three nominees, if there be two vacancies there shall be six nominees, and if there be three vacancies there shall be nine nominees certified to the Governor, who shall select for appointment one nominee from each group thus nominated. The commission immediately upon the qualification of the member appointed each year shall organize by selecting from its members a chair, and may do all things necessary or convenient for carrying into effect this article.
