Current Bill Summary

SB 278 - Current law requires each election authority to remove from its registration records the names of voters reported dead or adjudged incapacitated and determine the voting qualifications of those reported convicted or pardoned. This act requires such actions to take place within 60 days of being notified of any such death, conviction, adjudication of incapacity, or pardon. Failure to maintain registration records as required by this act is punishable as a class one election offense. Class one election offenses are punished by imprisonment of not more than five years or by fine of not less than $2,500 but not more than $10,000 or by both such imprisonment and fine.
