Relating to the disposition of certain election records.
SB 107 amends Texas election law to clarify how election officials handle and preserve specific election records. It requires poll workers to document detailed ballot counts (including defective, spoiled, and unused ballots) and serial number ranges for public transparency. The bill also shortens the required retention period for precinct election records from 36 to 22 months and mandates that a public list of votes by precinct be available for inspection the day after election. Additionally, it specifies that rejected provisional ballots must be stored in separate, marked envelopes and delivered to the general custodian of election records.
