Creates new class three election offenses

HB 479 creates a new "class three election offense" category for specific election-related violations, making them misdemeanors punishable by up to one year in jail or a $2,500 fine. It directly affects voters, election officials, and others who engage in prohibited acts like bribing voters, intimidating voters, tampering with voting materials, or disclosing voting information. Key provisions include banning the exchange of money or rewards for voting behavior, restricting access to voting booths, and prohibiting harassment of election workers. Violations causing death or injury would escalate to a class B felony.
