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.
