Relates to party nominations for candidates by county party committees
This bill changes how county party committees select candidates for county-wide offices. It requires county committees to designate candidates via majority vote, with each member's voting power based on the ratio of their district's past gubernatorial vote to the total county vote. Committees must hold meetings 21 days before primary petition deadlines and file candidate designations with election boards within four days. The bill applies specifically to county-level party nominations and does not affect state or federal elections.
