AI Summary

This bill amends the Pennsylvania Election Code to provide further assistance in voting. It allows voters who are unable to enter a polling place due to blindness, disease, or disability to vote from their vehicles. The bill outlines the procedures for this curbside voting, including having two election officers from different political parties assist the voter. The bill also retains the existing provisions for voters to receive assistance in the polling place from a person of their choice, with some restrictions on who can provide that assistance.
