§ 6400 Nomination Paper Submission Rules

Key Takeaways

•If you help collect signatures for someone running for office, you must give those papers back to the candidate or someone they choose.
•The candidate (or their helper) must gather all the signature papers from their county.
•The candidate must then give all those papers to the county elections office so they can check them.

Example

You help your friend collect signatures so they can run for mayor. You walk around town and get 50 people to sign your paper.

You have to give that paper back to your friend (or someone they pick). Then, your friend has to collect all the papers from everyone who helped and take them to the county elections office so they can make sure everything is correct.

Each section of a nomination paper shall be returned by the circulator who circulated it to the candidate or his or her designee. All the sections circulated in any county shall be collected by the candidate or his or her designee and he or she shall arrange and leave the sections with the county elections official for examination. (Amended by Stats. 1999, Ch. 790, Sec. 12. Effective January 1, 2000.)
