Bill Summary

To require that, for any candidate who has been nominated by multiple parties, the name of such candidate shall appear only once on the ballot.

AI Summary

This bill proposes a change to election ballot rules in Connecticut, specifically addressing candidates who receive nominations from multiple political parties. Under the proposed legislation, if a candidate is nominated by more than one political party, their name will be permitted to appear only once on the election ballot, rather than multiple times representing each party's nomination. This change aims to simplify ballot design and potentially reduce voter confusion by ensuring that a candidate is not repetitively listed across different party lines. The bill would amend Title 9 of the state's general statutes, which governs election procedures, and represents a technical adjustment to ballot formatting that could impact how multi-party nominated candidates are represented during elections.
