Sponsor:

Chamber: House

Stage: Standing Committee

What does this amendment do?

This amendment makes four changes to the hand-counting recount provisions: expanding the scope of one recount provision, removing outdated language about recount procedures, and clarifying allowable recount costs.

Extends the automatic recount requirement for proposition votes to include not just propositions but also races, allowing hand-count recounts to apply more broadly to ballot questions. (Page 10, line 22)
Removes introductory language and simplifies the structure of the ballot proposition recount section by deleting references to 'The two' and consolidating the subsection. (Page 13, lines 3-10)
Expands the list of allowable reasonable expenses for recount reimbursement to include facility rental fees in addition to wages, per diem, and mileage. (Page 16, line 1)
