Candidates; authorize political party executive committee to disqualify a candidate not meeting the committee's qualifications.
(H) Died In Committee
Summary
The bill would let a political party’s executive committee reject a candidate who does not meet the party’s own qualification rules. Any candidate rejected for that reason would be placed on the general‑election ballot as an independent, and the ballot would have to show their name as such. It is intended to give parties more control over who runs under their banner while still giving voters a choice.
