The proposed bill would amend current statutes by expanding the list of candidates required to be included in the Voter Education Guide published by the Citizens Clean Elections Commission. Specifically, it would add candidates for countywide offices, including those for the board of supervisors, to the existing requirement that already includes candidates for statewide and legislative district offices. This change aims to ensure that voters receive comprehensive information about all candidates running in elections at various levels.

Additionally, the bill introduces a requirement for the enactment of these changes, stipulating that they must receive an affirmative vote of at least three-fourths of the members of each house of the legislature. This provision is intended to comply with Proposition 105, which governs the enactment of certain legislative measures. The bill also makes technical changes to the existing language without altering the core responsibilities of the Commission regarding the publication of election-related documents.
