AB 1784 (Pellerin) will clarify that under California law, a candidate can only run for one office on the same ballot. The bill creates a procedure allowing candidates to withdraw previously filed nomination papers for a primary election. The need: to overturn Sacramento Superior Court ruling allowing Assemblymember Vince Fong to run for both state Assembly and the U.S. House in the same election.
AB1174 (Min) will ensure that local governments in California cannot implement laws to require voter identification in any election. The need: legislation to clarify voting rights after Huntington Beach City Council placed a voter identification measure on the March 2024 ballot.
