AI Summary

  • Changes the earliest date for one-stop voting from the second Thursday before an election to the third Thursday before an election, effectively extending early voting by one week.

  • Allows county boards of elections to conduct one-stop voting until 5:00 P.M. on the last Saturday before an election, in addition to the mandatory 1:00 P.M. closing time.

  • Removes subsections (g2) and (g3), which previously required counties that operated multiple one-stop sites in 2010 or 2012 to maintain the same cumulative voting hours and restricted boards' ability to reduce hours.

  • Effective for elections held on or after September 1, 2015.
