Catching up on campaigns and election rules

On May 6, the Board of Elections and Ethics approved changes to certain election procedures.   The final changes were published as final rules in the May 14 DC Register.   The rules pertain to absentee voting.

In other news, BOEE is posting on their web site the candidates who have picked up petitions for office.   The list is cumulative and revised as candidates pick up petitions.   Updates are posted at the end of the day.

According to the Office of Campaign Finance, additional candidates have filed papers to run for office:   Kathy Henderson (Ward 5) and Dorothy Douglas (Chair).   These and the other candidates, including contact information, are online here.   (Do you have information that should be included in this spreadsheet?   Email it and I will update it.)   This file was updated May 18.

Finally, TENAC is having a candidates forum on June 1 from 6:30 - 8:30 pm at Charles Sumner Museum School, 1201 17th St NW.   A flier is online.
