On Monday, March 8, at 2 p.m., the Elections Subcommittee of the Georgia House Government Affairs Committee will hold a hearing on HB 1141, one of the Georgia ballot access reform bills. HB 1141 lowers the statewide candidate petitions (both independent and minor party), and the U.S. House candidate petitions, to exactly 5,000 signatures. Thanks to Jason Pye for this news.
