AI Summary
This bill expands privacy protections for election officers by redefining "election officer" to include any individual assigned official election duties by the state or a political subdivision, regardless of whether they hold a specific certificate. This change impacts laws concerning the confidentiality of records maintained by county recorders, assessors, and treasurers, as well as the prohibition of making personal information of certain officials available online, and the sealing of voter registration records. The bill also creates a new law making it a misdemeanor to knowingly and without consent release an election officer's personal information if it poses an imminent threat to their safety or that of their family or household members. These provisions aim to protect individuals performing election duties from potential harm due to the public release of their personal information.
