Bill Caption
Relating to the election of junior college district trustees by plurality vote.
Fiscal Notes
From the LBB: No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
Bill Analysis
This bill would add a provision that the governing board of a junior college may provide a resolution that a candidate in a district trustee election must receive a plurality of the vote not later than the 180th day before the date of an election.
Vote Recommendation Notes
This bill would enact a procedural change which does not appear to have a connection to our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
