AN ACT relating to election officers.

Summary

The bill requires each county board of elections to appoint two judges, one clerk and one sheriff for every precinct by March 20 each year, using candidate lists submitted by the two political parties or, if none are provided, by the board or county clerk. It also creates procedures for alternate and emergency officers, permits a limited number of additional officers, and gives the State Board of Elections authority to evaluate and approve appointments. The changes aim to ensure bipartisan staffing of election sites and to fill officer vacancies.
