Summary

Under existing law, when a vacancy occurs in the office of Representative to Congress, or in either house of the Legislature, the Governor is required, within 14 days, to issue a proclamation calling a special election to fill the vacancy, as specified. Existing law requires that such an election be conducted on a Tuesday at least 126 days, but not more than 140 days, following the issuance of the proclamation. However, existing law also provides that the special election may be consolidated with the next regularly scheduled election, if it is within 180 days of the issuance of the proclamation. This bill would instead provide that a special election to fill a vacancy in the above-listed offices may be consolidated with any regularly scheduled election that is within 180 days of the issuance of the proclamation. The bill would make other technical changes.
