The taking of the property in the name of a company, association, organization or corporation, if the shares of stock therein, or other evidence of ownership, membership or other interest therein, or in the property thereof, held by any government or municipal corporation, quasi-municipal corporation, or governmental or political unit, subdivision or corporation, or any other company, association, organization or corporation, referred to in section 61-327[, Idaho Code], together with such shares or other evidence of ownership, membership or interest held by others but paid for, guaranteed or otherwise secured, directly or indirectly, by any such government or municipal corporation, quasi-municipal corporation, or governmental or political unit, subdivision or corporation, amount to a majority of the issued stock or other evidence of ownership, membership or other interest therein, or in the property thereof.
c. The purchase, acquisition or holding of the majority of the issued stock, or other evidence of ownership, membership or other interest therein, or the voting control of any such stock or other evidence of ownership, membership or interest, either directly or indirectly, by any government or municipal corporation, quasi-municipal corporation, or governmental or political unit, subdivision or corporation, or any other company, association, organization or corporation, referred to in section 61-327[, Idaho Code], in any company, association, organization or corporation now or hereafter owning, holding or operating any property located in this state which is used in the generation, transmission, distribution or supply of electric power and energy to the public or any portion thereof.
