Bill Summary
Under current law, a person cannot be appointed to serve as a challenger in an election district unless that person is a registered voter in the county in which the election district is located. This bill would allow a person to be appointed to serve as a challenger in any election district located within a congressional or legislative district where the person resides. Under the bill, in the case of a congressional or legislative district, a person who is a registered voter in any county or part thereof located within the congressional or legislative district may be appointed as a challenger in any election district in any county or part thereof located within the congressional or legislative district.
AI Summary
This bill allows a person who is a registered voter in any county or part thereof located within a congressional or legislative district to be appointed as a challenger in any election district in any county or part thereof located within that congressional or legislative district, regardless of the person's county of residence. This change to the existing law expands the geographic area in which a challenger can be appointed beyond the county in which the election district is located.
