Florida S0460 revises special election procedures for filling vacancies in state offices.
Florida S0460 amends the state statutes to revise the procedures for special elections to fill vacancies in state offices. It mandates the Governor to set the dates for special primary and special elections within 14 days of a vacancy, ensuring these elections occur before the next regular legislative session. The bill also allows qualified electors to petition the circuit court if the Governor fails to set election dates. It specifies that if only one candidate qualifies for a special election, they are deemed elected.
