HB 6055 Summary

• Allows town registrars to publish elector admission session notices on the town's Internet website instead of requiring newspaper publication, with 5-15 days' notice before each session.

• Eliminates the "board for admission of electors" and consolidates elector admission appeals to be heard by town registrars, with appeals of registrar decisions going directly to the State Elections Enforcement Commission.

• Removes the requirement for registrars to hold formal sessions on specific dates and instead allows voter registry list maintenance to occur on any day except election or primary days.

• Changes voting tabulator tender appointment requirements to allow electors of the state (rather than only town electors) to serve as voting tabulator tenders.

• Removes requirements for registrar training on election law and procedures to be conducted by trained/former registrars hired by the Secretary of State.
