Before each primary election, the county election officer shall prepare an alphabetical list of electors by surname for each precinct, showing each elector's name, address, and party affiliation.

(2) After each primary election at which national, state, county, township, and, where applicable, city candidates are nominated, the county election officer shall prepare a new party affiliation list for each precinct.
