IN RE:
HB1163 by Denny (Relating to the filing fee for a candidate for certain offices on the general primary election ballot.), As Engrossed
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill amends Election Code to specify a filing fee for the office of district clerk. No significant gain to the state is anticipated because the change in law would add 20 district clerks to those candidates specified to pay an increased fee of $1,250 from the standard fee of $750 previously charged to all district clerks.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
