§ 21.20. General Statutes Applicable.

Latest version.

At elections held under this Chapter, where any questions shall arise which are not settled by Acts of the Legislature particularly applicable to the City or by this Chapter, then and in such event the Florida Statute and particularly the Florida Statute governing election applying to like situations involving state and county elections shall govern, so far as the same may be applicable. In the application of such general laws, the City Clerk shall be substituted in lieu of the county Supervisor of Election and the City Council shall be substituted in lieu of the Board of County Commissioners whenever such substitution would give sense and meaning to such statutes insofar as the same would otherwise be applicable to municipal elections.

The General Laws of Florida shall be particularly applicable and controlling as to the handling of the City election, issuance of necessary certificates, assisting voters and similar responsibilities of the precinct boards of elections.
