AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 53, Section 46 of the Massachusetts election laws to allow political parties to accept nomination signatures from voters enrolled in other parties, if the state committee of the party submits a statement to the Secretary of State allowing this. The current law requires that nomination signatures be from voters enrolled in the same party as the candidate, but this bill provides an exception to that requirement.
