NY A03412

Creates the "Deceptive Practices and Voter Suppression Prevention Act" adding two new sections to New York election law

Makes it a misdemeanor to knowingly communicate false information about election time, place, manner, voter eligibility, registration status, or candidate party affiliation that prevents or deters someone from voting

Establishes voter suppression as a class A misdemeanor, defined as using force, authority, or abuse of power to prevent, restrain, inhibit, or compel someone's voting behavior

Grants the Attorney General concurrent jurisdiction with district attorneys to prosecute deceptive practices and voter suppression offenses

Increases penalties for repeat offenders: second misdemeanor conviction becomes a class E felony, subsequent offenses become class D felonies
