Refer instances of election fraud to the attorney general for prosecution

This bill changes how election fraud cases are handled in West Virginia. Currently, the Secretary of State reports potential election fraud to local county prosecutors. Under this bill, if a county prosecutor declines to prosecute after 60 days, the Secretary of State must refer the case to the state Attorney General instead. This directly affects the Secretary of State, county prosecutors, and the Attorney General by shifting the referral pathway for election fraud investigations. The key change is the 60-day review period before cases can be escalated to the state level.
