SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)

Party designations on the ballot. Extends to local elections, other than school board and soil and water conservation district elections, the identification of candidates by party name on the ballot. The bill explicitly provides that an endorsement by a political party of a candidate who qualifies for the ballot through the petition process is not grounds for identifying that candidate by the party's name.
