H 114 Idaho House · 68th Legislature, 1st Regular Session (2025)

ELECTIONS – Amends and repeals existing law to revise provisions regarding the filling of vacancies of political party candidates.

Idaho's H 114 revises how political party vacancies in candidate slates are handled. It requires county, legislative district, or state central committees to fill vacancies for partisan offices (like state legislature or federal seats) within 15-30 days of the vacancy, unless occurring within 10 days of a primary election. Vacancies not filled by 50 days before a general election remain unfilled, keeping the original candidate's name on the ballot. The bill repeals outdated rules about pre-primary vacancies and adjusts withdrawal deadlines for candidates. These changes directly affect political parties and candidates in Idaho elections.
