ELECTIONS/POLLING PLACES: Provides for publication of polling locations (EN INCREASE LF EX See Note)
This bill requires the Secretary of State to publish polling place locations on their official website during the third week before a primary election. It also mandates that parish election officials, such as registrars of voters and clerks of court, list their local polling sites on their own websites starting thirty days before an election. Additionally, the Secretary of State's site must include instructions for voters to sign up for email alerts about any changes to polling locations. These measures aim to make election information more accessible online for voters across the state.
