The Candidate Qualification bill requires anyone running for office in Florida to be a registered political party member or non-affiliated for 365 days before the election. It mandates written confirmation of this status when declaring candidacy and allows court challenges if these conditions aren't met. If compliance isn't proven, the candidate can't be listed on the ballot. This law takes effect on July 1, 2026.
