HB0307SS001

This amendment modifies poll watcher certification timing requirements, changes mandatory seating provisions to optional, and allows poll watchers to bring personal chairs.

• Removes the requirement that poll watchers be registered electors residing in the state, changing it to only requiring county residency. (Page 5, line 17)
• Changes the poll watcher certification deadline from close of business the day before the election to not less than one week before the election. (Page 6, lines 7-10)
• Changes the requirement that poll watchers 'shall be provided chairs' to permissive language allowing them to be provided chairs, making seating optional rather than mandatory. (Page 6, line 15)
• Allows poll watchers to bring their own personal chairs to polling places in addition to any chairs that may be provided. (Page 6, lines 15-16)
