Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The increase in revenue depends on the number of write-in candidates- the office that the candidate runs for - and whether the candidate is required to file his/her certificate of announcement with the Secretary of State's Office. This will depend entirely on how many individuals choose to file given the new fee structure. The historical data is not helpful. There will be no reduction in revenue.
