What it does

The inclusion of this explanation does not constitute agreement with the explanation’s substance by the members of the general assembly. This bill relates to the conduct of elections. The bill changes the filing deadline for voter registration forms that would be due on the day after Thanksgiving from the following Monday to the next day the office of the county commissioner of elections or the state commissioner of elections is open. The bill requires a county commissioner of elections to hold training for all election personnel before each election, rather than before each primary and general election.
