Signed by the governor on February 12, 2026. This bill amends provisions relating to a candidate for public office.

  • To reflect the intent of S.B. 2001, Election Amendments, passed in the 2025 Second Special Session, provides that the 2026 deadline for a candidate for the office of United States representative to submit signatures to qualify for placement on the primary election ballot is the same as for similarly situated candidates
