Authorize non-partisan township elections

Introduced in the House

June 16, 2022

Introduced by Rep. Jeff Yaroch (R-33)

To permit township boards to choose to elect future township officers in non-partisan elections. Under this system voters would see only the names of candidates for supervisor, clerk, treasurer and trustee on their ballots, with no indication of the political leanings of candidates like those currently provided by party identifications.
