Bill Caption
Relating to filing requirements for candidates for certain judicial offices.
Fiscal Notes
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
Bill Analysis
This would repeal section 172.021(e) and (g) of the Election Code, setting out petition signature
requirements for the petitions that candidates for certain judicial offices must submit with their
respective applications for a place on the general primary election ballot, which vary with
respect to whether a candidate chooses to submit the applicable filing fee with that application or
chooses to file a petition in lieu of the filing fee.
Vote Recommendation Notes
This legislation does not weigh for or against the principles we consider when providing bill analysis, therefore, we remain neutral.
