Resign-to-Run Law
DE Reference Guide 0016 (Updated 06/2022)
These guidelines are for reference only. They are not to be construed as legal advice or representation. For any particular set of
facts or circumstances, refer to the applicable state, federal law, and case law, and/or consult a private attorney before drawing
any legal conclusions or relying upon this information.
R ESIGN-TO-R UN L AW – G ENERAL O VERVIEW
1
Governing law
o An “officer” may not qualify as a candidate for another state, district, county or municipal public office if the terms
or any part of the terms would overlap with each other if the person were to be elected and did not resign from
the office the person presently holds.
o An officer who qualifies for federal public office must resign from his or her presently-held office if the terms, or
any part, thereof, would overlap with each other. (See below “Exceptions to the resign-to-run law”)
Who is an “officer”? An “officer” is any elected or appointed person who has the authority to exercise the sovereign
powers pertaining to an office recognized under the State Constitution or state laws. With respect to a municipality,
an “officer” means a person, whether elected or appointed, who has the authority to exercise municipal power as
2
provided by the State Constitution, state laws, or municipal charter. (s. 99.012(1), F.S.) “Officers” include, but are
not limited to: mayors, city and county commissioners, state legislators, supervisors of elections, sheriffs, property
appraisers, judges, school board members, superintendents of school, state attorneys and public defenders,
municipal fire chiefs, medical examiners, and elected hospital board and airport authority members.
3
Exceptions to the resign-to-run law
o Political party offices.
o Persons serving without salary on an appointed board or authority.
o Persons holding federal office.
o An elected officer running for federal office if the term of office presently held is scheduled to expire and be filled
by election in the same primary and general election period as the federal office the officer is seeking.
4
Resignation process
o In writing at least 10 days prior to the first day of qualifying for the office the officer seeks.
For elected district, county, or municipal officers, submit:
To the officer before whom he or she qualified for the office he or she holds,
Copy to the Governor and the Department of State.
For appointed district, county, or municipal officers, submit:
To the officer or authority which appointed him or her to the office he or she holds
Copy to the Governor and the Department of State.

“officer” is someone who exercises sovereign power, in part or wholly, either in making, executing or administering the laws and
who derives his or her position from a duly and legally authorized election or appointment, whose duties are continuous in nature

Effective date of the resignation: The resignation must take effect no later than the earlier of the following dates:
o The date the officer would take office, if elected; or
o The date the officer’s successor is required to take office.
Resignation is irrevocable. Once submitted, the resignation is irrevocable.
Automatic resignations. An officer who qualifies for federal public office, but fails to submit a resignation pursuant
to the resign-to-run law constitutes an automatic irrevocable resignation, effective immediately, from the office he
6
or she presently holds. The Department of State is then required to send a notice of the automatic resignation to
the Governor. In the case of a district, county or municipal officer, a copy also is sent to the officer before the person
qualified if officer held an elective office or the office or authority who appointed the officer.
F REQUENTLY A SKED Q UESTIONS – R ESIGN-TO-R UN L AW:
If someone is a school board member and will not seek re-election at the next general election but intends to
qualify to run for state representative, will the person have to submit a resignation under the resign-to-run law?
o Yes. Section 100.041, F.S., reflects that the two-year term of office for a state representative begins upon
election and the four-year term of office for a school board member begins on the second Tuesday following
the general election. Therefore, if elected as a state representative, the term as a school board member,
would not expire until two weeks after taking office as a state representative. This two-week overlap requires
the school board member to submit a resignation under the resign-to-run law at least 10 days prior to
qualifying as a candidate as a state representative.
What can an officer do if he or she missed the deadline for submitting the resignation 10 days prior to the
beginning of the qualifying period for a state, county, district, or municipal office?
o If the officer still wishes to run for office, the officer may submit a resignation to take effect immediately or to
take effect on a date prior to qualifying for office. In this situation, the officer qualifies as a non-officeholder
and the “resign-to-run” law does not apply. (s. 99.012(3)(g), F.S.) Note: If the officer is a candidate for federal
office, the failure to satisfy the 10-day deadline operates as an automatic, immediate and irrevocable
resignation from office. (s. 99.012(4)(f)1., F.S.)
Does the "resign-to-run" law apply to subordinate officers, deputy sheriffs, or police officers?

Agenda Item #3D.
05 Nov 2024
o Generally, no, but the law will apply in a limited situation. A subordinate officer, deputy sheriff, or police
officer is exempt from the resign-to-run law unless the person is seeking to qualify for a public office which is
currently held by “an officer who has authority to appoint, employ, promote or otherwise supervise that
person and who has qualified as a candidate for reelection to that office.” If the subordinate officer, deputy
sheriff, or police officer must resign, the resignation must be effective upon qualifying for the office, not the
later times specified above for an “officer.”
o So, a deputy sheriff wishing to run for sheriff against an incumbent sheriff would have to resign, but if the
incumbent sheriff is not seeking reelection, the deputy sheriff would not have to resign. Also, if a deputy
sheriff wishes to run for a non-sheriff office (for example, state representative or city council), he or she would
not have to resign under the “resign-to-run” law.
o If a subordinate officer, deputy sheriff, or police officer must resign under this provision, he or she may not
7
take an unpaid leave of absence instead of resigning.
o Subordinate officers would include, among others: assistant public defenders, assistant state attorneys, and
deputy supervisors of elections. (s. 99.012(4), F.S; visit the Division of Elections’ Advisory Opinions webpage
for relevant resign to run opinions DE 08-04, 07-08, 99-01, 17-02, 17-03, 17-04, 18-07, 18-08 )
Does a city’s Chief of Police have to resign in order to run for another public office?
o It depends. The exemption mentioned in the answer to the question immediately above applies to a “police
officer.” A “chief of police” is a police officer; therefore, the chief of police need only resign to run for public
office if the chief is seeking to qualify for a public office which is currently held by "an officer who has
authority to appoint, employ, promote or otherwise supervise that person and who has qualified as a
candidate for reelection to that office." For example, a city’s chief of police would not have to resign to run for
county sheriff unless the sheriff has the authority to appoint, employ, promote or otherwise supervise the
chief of police and the incumbent sheriff has also qualified as a candidate for reelection. In the typical county-
city relationship, the sheriff does not have the authority to appoint, employ, promote or otherwise supervise a
city’s chief of police. However, for example, if a city mayor has the authority to hire and fire the chief of police,
the chief of police could not run for city mayor without resigning as chief of police if the incumbent mayor is
seeking re-election. (s. 99.012(5), F.S.)
What happens if an officer does not comply with the “resign-to-run” law?
o If a final court order determines that a person did not comply with the resign-to-run law, the person may not
be qualified as a candidate for an election or appear on the ballot. (s. 99.012(6), F.S.) Note, one of the
qualifying papers is the candidate oath in which the candidate states that he or she has resigned from any
office from which the candidate is required to resign; therefore, the filing officer may not look beyond the
oath. However, the filing officer performs only a ministerial function in reviewing qualifying papers and
cannot determine whether the contents of the qualifying papers are accurate. (s. 99.061(7)(c), F. S.) It takes a
court order to remove the person’s name from the ballot.
o Notwithstanding the above, an officer who qualifies for federal public office who fails to submit a resignation
pursuant to the resign-to-run law will result in an automatic irrevocable resignation, effective immediately,
from the office he or she presently holds. (s. 99.012(4)(f)1. F.S.) The Department of State is required to notify
the Governor and the appropriate qualifying officer or appointing authority of the automatic resignation. (s.
99.012(4)(f)2., F.S.)
What is the difference in the treatment of “district” officers under the resign-to-run law and the dual office-
holding constitutional provision?
7
The Legislature removed the alternative approach of taking an unpaid leave of absence from the statute in 2000.
Florida Department of State Page 3 of 4
Page 53 of 101
Agenda Item #3D.
05 Nov 2024
o The Attorney General has opined that district offices are not within the purview of the dual office-holding
provisions of the Constitution. However, district offices, by express statutory provision, are subject to the
provisions of the “resign-to-run” law. For example, an elected state or county officer may be appointed also to
a district office. However, if the state or county officer later seeks reelection to the state or county office while
occupying the district office, he or she would have to submit a resignation under the “resign-to-run” law from
the district office before qualifying and running for reelection if the terms of office overlap, unless the district
office consists of being a member on an appointed board or authority and the county or state officer receives
no salary for being on the board or authority.
How does the “resign-to-run” law relate to the federal “Hatch Act?”
o The state resign-to-run law is entirely separate from the federal “Hatch Act.” (5 U.S.C. §§ 1501- 1508)
o The federal Hatch Act applies to executive branch state and local employees who are principally employed in
connection with programs financed in whole or in part by loans or grants made by the United States or a
federal agency. The Act prohibits a state, county, or municipal employee from being a candidate for public
office in a partisan election if the employee’s salary is completely funded with federal dollars. It is only when
the covered employee’s entire salary is paid from federal funds that the employee would have to resign under
the Hatch Act before becoming a candidate for partisan office. See 5 U.S.C. § 1502 (Hatch Act Modernization
Act of 2012 (eff. 1.27.2013).
Governors, Lieutenant Governors, mayors, elected heads of executive departments, and individuals
holding elective office are specifically exempt from the Hatch Act prohibition against being a candidate
for public office.
A partisan election means one in which any candidate will be listed on the ballot as a candidate for a
political party.
o Additionally, an employee’s conduct is also subject to the state and local laws and the regulations of the
employing agency. Therefore, the employee should check with his or her supervisor, personnel office, or the
agency’s general counsel to determine what state or local law or agency rules or policies may apply regarding
the employee’s political activities.

Form 1 – Statement of Financial Interests
Revised on 6-12-24 to reflect changes to Financial Disclosure requirements.
(Please refer to the Florida Commission on Ethics’ memo dated 6-10-24 for more details.)
A candidate qualifying for office who is the incumbent or otherwise currently holds a position
requiring the filing of a Form 1 or Form 6 must log into EFDMS via the "I am a Filer" button and
electronically file their disclosure form. The law permits the filer to print and take the Verification/Receipt
of Filing to their Qualifying Officer instead of printing the disclosure form for qualifying purposes. These
candidates should make sure that the Verification/Receipt of Filing is for the appropriate disclosure form
required for qualification purposes. (Sample - Current Form 1 Filer/Incumbent Candidate–
Verification/Receipt of Filing)
Non-incumbent candidates who do not otherwise hold a position requiring the filing of a Form 1 or
Form 6 must log into the EFDMS via the "I am a Candidate" button. These candidates will not file
electronically with the Commission (their form status in EFDMS will always reflect “in progress”).
Importantly, because this category of candidate does not file electronically, they do not have the option to
print a Verification/Receipt of Filing. They must print their completed disclosure and any uploaded
attachments to file with the Qualifying Officer. (Sample - Non-incumbent – Form 1)
Click the following link to access the Florida Commission on Ethics’ Electronic Financial Disclosure
Management System (EFDMS) webpage for instructions and links. (If you have questions on how to
fill out the information required, please contact your financial advisor.)

appropriate cover periods.)
(4)Page numbers (e.g., 1of 3).
(5)Date of distribution (Month/Day/Year).
(6)Sequence Number-Each detail line shall have a sequence number assigned to it. Sequence numbers are to be
assigned within each reporting period and for each type of detail line. Thus the report type, detail line type, and
sequence number will combine to uniquely identify a specific contribution, expenditure, distribution or fund transfer.
This method of unique identification is required for responding to requests from thefiling officer and for reporting
amendments.
For example, a M1 report having 40 distributions would use sequence numbers 1through 40. The next report
(M2), comprised of 30 distributions would use sequence numbers 1 through30. Distributions on amended M1
reports would begin with sequence number 41 and on amended M2 reports would begin with sequence number
31. See Amendment Typeinstructions below.
(7)Full name and address of entity receiving distribution (including city, state and zip code).
(8)Purpose of distribution (if distribution is a contribution to a candidate, also type the office sought by the candidate).
(9)For each distribution that is related to an itemized expenditure previously listed on Itemized Expenditures (Form
DS-DE 14), enter the Year, Report Type and Sequence Number associated with the expenditure.
*PARTY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES ONLY -If distribution is allocable toward the contribution limits, type
an "A" in this box. If distribution is nonallocable, type and "N".
(10)Amendment Type(required on amended reports) -To add a new (previously unreported) distribution for the
reporting period being amended, enter "ADD" in amendment type on a line with ALL of the required data.
The sequence number for distributions with amendment type "ADD" will start at one plus the number of
distributions in the original report. For example, amending and original M1 report that had 75 distributions, means
the sequence number of the first distribution having amendment type "ADD" will be 76; the second "ADD"
distribution would be 77, etc. When amending an original M2 report that had 30 distributions, the ninth "ADD"
distribution would have sequence number 39.
To correct a previously submitteddistribution use the following drop/add procedure. Enter "DEL" in amendment
type on a line with the sequence number of the distribution to be corrected. In combination with the report number
being amended, this sequence number will identify the distribution to be dropped from your active records. On the
