Summary

The bill directs the Secretary of State to identify counties where at least 5 % or 5,000 voting‑age residents are limited‑English‑proficient and belong to a single language minority, and then obligates those counties to supply ballots, registration forms and other notices in those languages. It also mandates bilingual poll workers and lets the state require translations for other languages if a significant need is shown. The measure aims to improve voting access for non‑English speakers.
