Pennsylvania HB2280 amends the Pennsylvania Election Code to revise the affidavits candidates must file. Each candidate must state their residence, post-office address, election district, and eligibility for the office.

The bill also adds a requirement for candidates to state their awareness of campaign finance reporting. The affidavits are used administratively to ascertain qualifications and are exempt from public disclosure.
