School board elections; revise qualification deadlines for.

HB 728 changes the deadline for school board candidates in Mississippi to file required petitions and affidavits. Instead of filing 60-90 days before an election, candidates must now submit these materials between May 1 and July 1 of the election year. This applies to all school district trustee candidates, including county boards, municipal separate school districts, and consolidated districts. The bill also modifies deadlines for presidential candidates, though this is a minor provision. The change aims to standardize filing windows across all school board elections.
