Bill > HB570

This bill amends Louisiana law to allow voters to change their party affiliation prior to the close of voter registration, which would qualify them to vote for candidates for membership on a political party committee. The bill removes the previous 30-day waiting period for a change in party affiliation to take effect, and it also removes the restriction on voting for candidates of a party the voter has "renounced and abandoned" during that 30-day period. The changes in party affiliation must be made prior to the close of voter registration, as outlined in Louisiana Revised Statute 18:135.
