AI Summary
This bill: Makes technical amendments to reorganize and update definitions related to Indiana election law, specifically repealing the existing definitions chapter (IC 3-5-2) and replacing it with a new, more comprehensive definitions chapter (IC 3-5-2.1). The bill updates and alphabetizes definitions for terms used in election-related statutes, including terms like "candidate," "contribution," "political action committee," and many others. The changes aim to improve the organization of definitions, provide more clarity, and potentially make future amendments easier by creating a more structured definitions chapter. The bill includes numerous cross-reference updates to ensure consistency across different sections of Indiana Code, particularly in areas related to elections, political activities, and campaign finance. The amendments appear to be primarily technical in nature, focusing on reorganization and clarification rather than substantive policy changes.
