nominating petitions; in lieu fee

Summary

The bill sets a filing window of 120‑150 days before the primary and creates an option for candidates to pay a filing fee rather than collect petition signatures. It applies to state and local offices but excludes U.S. Senate, House, and President/vice‑president races. The fee amount and a notarized declaration will be established by the Secretary of State.
