Bill Summary
General Description: This bill requires the posting of certain information relating to a candidate for public office.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to require election officers, instead of just county or municipal clerks, to post specific candidate information on their website within three business days of accepting a declaration of candidacy. This information includes the candidate's name, campaign contact details, the office they are seeking, and crucially, their political party affiliation or a statement that they are not affiliated with any party, regardless of the type of office or election. For election officers without a website, this information must be published on the Utah Public Notice Website. The bill also specifies an effective date of May 6, 2026.
