Elections: ballot measures.
Summary
Under existing law, whenever a county measure or a school measure qualifies for the ballot, arguments for or against the measure may be submitted to the voters of the county or district. An argument for or against a county measure or a school measure may be submitted to elections officials by any member or members of the governing board authorized by the board to submit an argument. This bill would delete the requirement that a member of the board be authorized by the board in order to submit an argument to elections officials for or against a county measure or a school measure.
