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. Under current law, a challenger must be a registered voter in the same county as the election district where they are appointed to serve. This change provides more flexibility for the appointment of challengers across a broader geographic area.
