This amendment makes five technical corrections to SF0190, including clarifying language about electronic ballot marking devices, removing obsolete definition language, adjusting recount thresholds, adding propositions to the secretary of state's recount authority, and specifying facility fees as allowable costs in recount expenses.
- Changes the eligibility for electronic ballot marking devices from 'persons with disabilities' to 'electors who choose to use them', broadening access to the devices. (Page 2, line 16)
- Changes a colon to a comma in the definitions section for grammatical consistency. (Page 3, line 2)
- Removes the definition of 'Disability' that referenced the Americans with Disabilities Act, as it is no longer needed after the previous language change. (Page 3, lines 4-6)
- Removes the subsection designation '(ii)' from the definition of 'Electronic ballot marking device' after the deletion of the disability definition. (Page 3, line 8)
- Expands the secretary of state's authority to require recounts to include both 'question or race' instead of just 'race', clarifying that both ballot measures and candidate races can be subject to mandatory recounts. (Page 18, line 8)
- Adds 'facility fee rental' to the list of allowable reasonable expenses that county clerks can seek reimbursement for from the election recount account. (Page 23, line 12)
