IN RE:
SB1913 by Johnson (Relating to requiring certain cities to hold elections on the November uniform election date.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Election Code to require that certain municipalities move their elections from May to November.

According to the Secretary of State (SOS), the bill would have no significant state fiscal impact. The office would update advisory materials and certification procedures within existing resources.

Local Government Impact

SOS is unable to determine the fiscal impact, if any, that the implementation of this bill could have on local governments. However, there could be a local impact on cities due to the cost of having to move its elections to November.
