 8    of this Act, so far as they are the  same  as  those  of  any
 9    prior  statute, shall be construed as a continuation of those

11        If in any other statute reference is made to  an  Act  of
12    the General Assembly, or a Section of such an Act, that which
13    is  continued in this Election Code, the such reference shall
14    be held to refer to the Act or Section thereof  so  continued
15    in this Code.
