Cancellation of caucus meeting.

Summary

The bill changes Indiana election law so that if only one person files to fill a local office vacancy, the scheduled caucus can be cancelled and the county chairman may appoint that person directly. It also allows candidates to file a declaration of candidacy with either the caucus chair or the circuit court clerk, and requires the clerk to forward the filing to the chair the same day. The goal is to avoid unnecessary meetings and speed up the appointment process.
