http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-me-cox23aug23,1,6734134.story?coll=la-headlines-politicsTwenty candidates beat the clock Monday by filing paperwork to run in an Oct. 4 special primary election to replace Rep. Christopher Cox (R-Newport Beach), who resigned this month to become chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each candidate for the 48th District seat had to pay a $1,621 filing fee or collect enough signatures from registered voters to qualify. Should no one win a majority vote in the primary, the top vote-getters from each party will move on to a Dec. 6 special general election.
just one question for our friends in Orange County--why not have the run-off at the same time as the special election?
wouldn't that save money
