AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Voting Integrity and Verification Act of New York (VIVA NY)", amends the Election Law to require each voter to use an individual, voter-verifiable paper ballot, either marked by hand or through the use of a non-tabulating ballot marking device. The bill also defines key terms, such as "non-tabulating ballot marking device" and "human readable paper ballot", and ensures that all paper ballots for the same election district are identical. The bill also allows voting machines and systems purchased prior to the effective date of the act to continue being used if they are designed to utilize individual, voter-verifiable paper ballots.
