Bill Summary
For legislation to allow political parties to self govern. Election Laws.
AI Summary
This bill allows political parties to self-govern by providing them the flexibility to determine the structure and composition of their state, ward, and town committees. The bill amends existing law to allow parties to submit statements to the Secretary of State specifying the number of members on their committees and the rules for appointing those members, as long as the method allows all registered voters of the party to participate either directly or through a specified method of delegation or representation. This change grants political parties more autonomy in organizing their internal governance structures.
