LWVFl Speakers Bureau Training: Amendment 1

About this event



Speakers Bureau

On August 8 at 6:30 p.m. (ET), the LWV of Florida's Speakers Bureau will host a training for a new presentation on the topic of Florida's 2024 Amendment 1.

 

Amendment 1 would make school board elections partisan beginning in 2026. Candidates would be nominated for the general election through partisan primaries and be featured on the ballot with partisan labels.


As of 2024, the Florida Constitution requires school board elections to be nonpartisan, meaning that partisan labels do not appear on the ballot next to a candidate's name. Florida had partisan school board elections until voters approved Amendment 11, which prohibited party labels in school board elections, in 1998.
