Deadline to run is Friday, March 11
Republican Mike Harrison, Deputy Chief of Staff to Congressman Duncan Hunter, has announced he is dropping his race for the 71st Assembly district seat that encompasses most of East County. As of today, only Santee Mayor Randy Voepel, also a Republican, has turned in candidacy papers to run.
The deadline to file paperwork to run for this office (and other federal or state offices) is March 11 at 5 p.m. Candidates must first pick up nomination forms at the County Registrar of Voters and submit at least 40 valid signatures of voters in the district by the March 11 deadline (up to 60 may be submitted) and pay a filing fee of $1,090 for the 71st Assembly district. (Fees vary based on the office). (learn more at www.SDVote.com)
