Bill > HB2054

This bill amends the Pennsylvania Election Code to provide new requirements and procedures related to electronic voting systems. It requires vendors of electronic voting systems to file written disclosures with the Department of State regarding any known defects in their systems, the effects of such defects, and any corrective measures. The Department of State is authorized to investigate potential defects, suspend the sale, lease, or use of systems with defects, and impose civil penalties on vendors that fail to disclose or cure defects. The bill also establishes a process for vendors to respond to and address identified defects. The goal is to ensure the timeliness and accuracy of ballot casting and counting in Pennsylvania's elections.
