S 7700 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the designation and nomination of candidates for village office in village elections conducted on the day of the general election

This bill (S 7700) changes how villages nominate candidates for local office when holding elections on the same day as the state general election. It directly affects villages that choose to align their elections with the general election date. The key provision requires these villages to follow the same nomination procedures used for town elections (sections 6-100 through 6-108 of the election law) instead of the standard village election rules. This streamlines the process by applying existing town election rules to qualifying village elections.
