The following is a press release from an organization unaffiliated with Voice of OC. The views expressed here are not those of Voice of OC.
The eligible incumbents in these offices did not file for re-election, which extends the filing period to allow other qualified candidates to file.
SANTA ANA, CA – August 9, 2024 – Those interested in running for certain school district and special district offices now have more time to file a declaration of candidacy with the Registrar of Voters, because an eligible incumbent did not file.
Only new candidates for the 31 offices listed below can file during the extension period, which closes at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, August 14, 2024.
Incumbents currently holding these offices are no longer eligible to be placed on the ballot for the November 5, 2024 Presidential General Election, because they failed to file nomination papers by the original August 9, 2024 deadline.
“This is a great opportunity for someone who may have been initially hesitant to run against an incumbent to now put their name forward,” said County of Orange Registrar of Voters Bob Page.
Candidacy documents will be available Monday through Wednesday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Registrar of Voters office, 1300 S. Grand Ave., Building C in Santa Ana.
The Registrar of Voters also provides a detailed Candidate’s Handbook with information about the candidate filing process on its website (ocvote.gov/candidates).
For further information, call the Registrar of Voters office at 714-567-7600 and ask for “Candidate and Voter Services” division.
Information about the possible extension of the candidate filing period for city offices will be announced by the individual City Clerks.
