Elections; officers of election; use of pollbooks and precinct registered voter lists. Provides that the electoral board may set the time or times for annual training of officers of election and deletes the provision specifying that training take place within the three to 30 days before each November general election. The bill also provides for statewide implementation for elections conducted after July 1, 2003, of a program to use a single list at precincts on election day that will show both the registered voters and persons voting. The State Board of Elections has been conducting pilot programs testing the use of a combined list. This bill incorporates recommendations of the Joint Subcommittee Studying Virginia's Election Process and Voting Technologies (HJR 681/SJR 363 -- 2001). This bill is identical to SB 19.
