Purpose


The rule will require all qualifying papers filed by candidates with a qualifying office to be an original document, except the full and public disclosure or statement or financial interests as permitted by statute. Currently, only those documents filed under oath with the Division of Elections must be an original. The rule is expanded to include supervisors of elections as a qualifying office within the purview of the rule. The rule incorporates by reference candidate qualifying forms. The rule makes clarifying changes to the title, text, and organization of the rule.
