Bill > SB0112

This bill, effective July 1, 2026, establishes a new process for candidates in Indiana who wish to withdraw their candidacy or decline a nomination. A "notice of withdrawal" is defined as a document where an individual formally withdraws as a candidate, states they will not accept a nomination, is no longer a candidate, or does not want their name on the ballot. It also covers situations where a candidate requests their name be printed based on a petition or convention, or chooses which nomination they will accept. The key provision is that if an individual files this notice of withdrawal and lists an address different from the one on their voter registration record, their signature on the withdrawal notice will automatically serve as a request to the county voter registration office to update their voter registration address to match the one provided on the withdrawal notice.
