PRIOR TO CIRCULATION
A.
All blank spaces which appear at the top of the front page of each nomination page must be
completed before signatures are obtained.
B.
Type or print the name of the candidate on the face of the petition exactly as the candidate
wants it to appear on the ballot. Given names must be used. Titles such as Dr, Mr. or Mrs.,
etc. are not permitted. A nickname is allowed only if it is a derivative of the legal given
name, unless an affidavit for primary ballot name change request is filed with our office.
C.
Check that the proper party, office title, municipality, ward and/or district (if applicable)
and length of term is set forth in the petition. The Board of Elections does not make
recommendations for length of term, if there is a choice. On School Director petitions,
state the party, office title, school district, region (if applicable) and length of term.
D.
The offices of Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, Magisterial District Judge and School
Director are the only candidates who are permitted to cross-file to run on both party tickets.
E.
The circulator may be the candidate or a qualified elector duly registered and enrolled as
a member of the political party referred to in the petition (unless the petition relates to the
nomination of a candidate for Magisterial District Judge, in which event the circulator need
not be a duly registered and enrolled member of the designated party).
F.
The statutory requirement, 25 P.S. § 2869, that requires the circulator of a nomination petition to
be a resident of the relevant political district named in the petition will not be enforced pursuant
to advice received from the Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General in Villa v. Aichele, No.
13-cv-06374 (E.D. Pa. 2013).
Please note that while the Bucks County Board of Elections will not reject nomination petitions
on the basis that the circulator does not reside in the district specified in the nomination petition,
candidates should be aware that their nomination petition may be challenged in the Court of
Common Pleas on the basis that the circulator does not reside in the district.
Bucks County Board of Elections 55 East Court Street Doylestown, Pennsylvania 18901 215-348-6154

make expenditures in excess of $250.00 during any reporting period. However, if the candidate
either forms a political committee or collects or spends more than $250.00 during any reporting
period, the waiver is invalid. If the waiver is not completed, the candidate will be required to
file campaign expense reports at the scheduled filing dates.
