Charter; City of Portsmouth. Changes the deadline for the filing of a petition nominating a candidate for the office of mayor or city council member from the first Tuesday in June to the second Tuesday of June of the year of election. The amendment also moves the deadline for appointing a campaign treasurer from the first to the second Tuesday of June and makes the technical change of allowing the circulation of petitions to begin on January 1, as permitted by the Code of Virginia, rather than on the first Tuesday in January.
