This bill amends various sections of Florida Statutes related to the election of county commissioners, district school board members, and district school superintendents. It requires that county commissioners be nominated and elected by qualified electors residing in the same district, and establishes a membership structure for county commissioners based on population criteria, allowing for more commissioners than previously prescribed. The bill also mandates that district school board members be elected by qualified electors in their respective school districts and allows district school boards to increase their membership through a resolution, subject to voter approval. Additionally, it repeals certain sections that provided alternate procedures for elections and representation.

Key changes include the repeal of sections related to alternate election procedures for county commissioners and district school board members, and the introduction of new provisions that require elections to be based on single-member representation. The bill also specifies that the membership of both county commissioners and district school boards will be determined by population, with specific member counts for different population brackets. The effective date of the act is contingent upon the approval of a related constitutional amendment.
