SF0113HS001

This amendment removes references to the specific 2026 election cycle and generalizes the hand count comparison requirements to apply to all elections, while also modifying the candidate recount affidavit provisions.

• Changes the bill's catch title from '2026 election hand count comparison' to 'Election hand count comparison' to make it apply generally rather than only to 2026. (Page 1, lines 1-2)
• Removes '2026' reference from the bill's operative language to broaden the application beyond the 2026 election cycle. (Page 1, line 4; Page 2, line 21; Page 3, line 9; Page 4, line 12)
• Changes the requirement from conducting hand counts 'for the 2026 primary and 2026 general elections' to 'each election', making the hand count comparison requirement recurring rather than one-time. (Page 3, lines 8-9)
• Replaces the candidate recount provisions with language allowing a candidate to obtain a recount by filing an affidavit alleging fraud or error, with the affidavit specifying whether the recount should use electronic voting equipment or hand count using tally sheets. (Page 6, lines 11-22)
