Concerning the removal of deceased candidates for nonpartisan office from ballots.

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill allows for the removal of a deceased candidate's name from ballots for nonpartisan city, town, or special district offices. If a candidate dies before the general election, and ballots haven't been printed, the next highest vote-getter from the primary will be placed on the ballot. If ballots have already been printed, votes for the deceased candidate will not be counted.
