Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 4 of the Elections Code, relating to elections.

AI Summary

This bill, an act to amend Section 4 of the Elections Code, proposes nonsubstantive changes to the existing law that governs the interpretation of election laws in California. Specifically, it amends a provision that states general provisions, rules of construction, and definitions shall govern the construction of the Elections Code unless the specific law or its context requires otherwise, by changing the word "shall" to "govern" in that sentence, which is a minor stylistic adjustment without altering the meaning or legal effect of the provision.
