The election shall be held within sixty (60) days after the date of the proclamation and within four (4) months after the date of the receipt of the proposed amendment by the appropriate official from the Secretary of State of the United States. If a general election occurs within this period, the special election shall be held at the same time and by the same election officers who conduct the general election.
