Current Bill Summary

SB 740 - This act permits election challengers to be present in a polling place during the absentee voting period. Additionally, the act moves up the time period when the chair of a county committee is required to designate challengers. Currently, challengers are to be designated not later than four business days prior to the election. This act requires designations to be made not later than four business days prior to the beginning of the absentee voting period.

This act is substantially similar to HB 638 (2025).
