        Deletes everything.  Creates the Public Employee  Candidacy  Act.      
   Prohibits  a public employer from penalizing a public employee through      
   termination  of  employment,  forced  resignation,   invalidation   of      
   transfer,   demotion,   reprimand,  or  other  means  because  of  the      
   employee's candidacy for a public office. Conditions  the  prohibition      
   upon  the  employee's  notification  of  the  employer  of  his or her      
   candidacy.  Requires  a  notified  employer  to  request  an  advisory

   employee is subject to  the  federal  Hatch  Act  and  to  inform  the

   employee subject to the federal Hatch Act an equivalent position  that      
   is  not subject to that Act.  Provides that the Act's prohibition does      
   not apply to an employee who remains in  a  position  subject  to  the
