Changes Regarding

Chapter 106 Electioneering Communications

 

May 2009 - the Federal District Court for the Northern District of Florida enjoined the State of Florida from enforcing the electioneering communications provisions of Chapter 106, Florida Statutes, as they relate to candidate electioneering ads. The Court also enjoined the enforcement of all Chapter 106 regulations of issue-only electioneering ads. The case is currently on appeal to the federal Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals.  (see Court opinion)

Resign to Run

 

Interpretation of the Florida "Resign-To-Run Law" and Method of Filling a Vacancy in Office Pursuant to the City of Miami Charter

The City of Miami Commission on July 23, 2009 passed on second reading an Ordinance 13082  that allows for a Special Election at the same time as the General Municipal Election on November 3, 2009, by changing the qualifying period for the Special Election.  The Special Election would be for a district commission seat that would become vacant if the incumbent commissioner of that seat resigns to run for the office of Mayor.  The ordinance also establishes an effective date for the resignation.
