Bill Caption

Relating to a withdrawal of a candidate.

Fiscal Notes

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. 

Bill Analysis

This bill would require that if a candidate files a withdrawal request before ballots are prepared that they be omitted from the ballot even if the withdrawal request is untimely.

Vote Recommendation Notes

This bill would enact a procedural change that does not appear to have a connection to our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
