Correct Answer
B. A person convicted of certain selective-draft-law violations listed in Public Officers Law §3
Detailed Explanation
This is one of the booklet's less obvious eligibility traps. The Public Officers Law §3 note states that no person is eligible who has been convicted of the listed selective-draft-law violations. For contrast, election officials may be eligible and certain county-clerk designees are treated separately under County Law §534.
