Bill Summary
To require at least two early voting locations in each municipality with a population of fifty thousand or greater.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend existing election law to require municipalities with a population of 50,000 or more to provide at least two locations for early voting during the early voting period. By mandating multiple early voting sites in larger municipalities, the legislation aims to increase voter accessibility and convenience for residents in more populous cities and towns. Currently, many municipalities may have only one early voting location, which can create barriers for voters who have difficulty traveling to a single polling place. The bill seeks to address this potential limitation by ensuring that larger municipalities offer multiple convenient early voting locations, thus potentially improving voter turnout and making the voting process more accessible to a broader range of residents.
