SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE:
Elections; acquisition of voting equipment by localities. Modifies the provision enacted in 2007 that prohibits the acquisition of direct recording electronic (DRE) machines by any locality on and after July 1, 2007. The modification will allow a locality that acquired DREs before July 1, 2007, to acquire DREs on a temporary basis to conduct a special election when its existing DRE inventory is insufficient because the inventory is wholly or partly under lock and seal following an election. This bill is identical to HB 2422.
