This amendment narrows the exception for electronic ballot marking devices by removing the specific reference to persons with disabilities and instead allowing their use by electors who prefer them, while deleting the definition of disability and related provisions.
- Changes the language allowing electronic ballot marking devices from being specifically for 'persons with disabilities' to 'electors who prefer to use them', expanding who may use these devices. (Page 2, line 6)
- Removes the remainder of the line following 'systems.' which contained language about conforming to Election Code requirements for voting machines. (Page 2, line 10)
- Deletes the definition of 'Disability' that referenced the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and the Americans with Disabilities Amendments Act of 2008. (Page 2, lines 11-13)
- Changes punctuation from a colon to a comma in the definitions section. (Page 2, line 15)
- Deletes the complete definition of 'Electronic ballot marking device' that described it as an electronic device assisting voters in marking ballots including touch screen devices. (Page 2, lines 17-19)
- Removes the subsection label '(ii)' from the definitions section. (Page 2, line 21)
