Bill > HB640

This bill modifies existing election laws by eliminating the ability for any registered voter to challenge another voter's right to cast a ballot at a polling place on election day, and also removes the process where any three registered voters could challenge a voter's registration with the general registrar. Instead, challenges to a voter's registration can now only be initiated by filing a petition with the circuit court of the county or city where the voter is registered, with specific timelines and notice requirements for such legal challenges. The bill also makes minor adjustments to the process for provisional ballots and absentee ballot applications, primarily by removing references to the now-eliminated challenge procedures.
