ELECTION CODE: Makes revisions to the system of laws providing for elections (EN NO IMPACT See Note)

HB 677 is a technical amendment bill that makes minor corrections to the state's Election Code. The legislation does not introduce new election rules or change how elections are conducted; instead, it updates specific references to other laws and removes outdated sections from the text. These changes are purely administrative and affect only the legal code itself, with no direct impact on voters, candidates, or election officials.
