Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to elections; clarifying the definition of "qualified elector"; making conforming changes related to voter registration and voter qualifications; and providing for an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill clarifies the definition of a "qualified elector" in Wyoming, which refers to a person eligible to vote. It makes conforming changes to various sections of the law related to voter registration and qualifications, primarily by ensuring that the age and residency requirements for being a qualified elector are tied to the date of the *next* election, rather than the specific election at which a person might offer to vote. This means that individuals who will turn 18 or meet the 30-day residency requirement before the upcoming election will be considered qualified. The bill also removes slightly redundant phrasing from existing statutes. The changes are set to take effect on June 1, 2026.
