Summary

The bill removes the existing prohibition that bars, restaurants and other alcohol retailers cannot sell alcoholic beverages within 250 feet of a polling location on election days. It affects businesses near polling sites by allowing them to sell alcohol, and eliminates the enforcement duty for election officials. The change is intended to lift a restriction that supporters view as unnecessary.
