-Changes the deadline for candidates to file their nomination papers with the Secretary of state so that the filing must occur no later than the last Tuesday in April preceding the day fixed by law for holding the primary, rather than the last Tuesday in January preceding the day fixed by law for holding the primary (Sec. 9).
