Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 2085 amends the Election Code to provide that, if the number of election clerks appointed who are fluent in both English and Spanish is insufficient to serve the needs of the Spanish-speaking voters in the election, the authority holding the elections is required to appoint at least one such clerk to serve at a central location. On primary election day, the county chairs of each party holding a primary are each required to appoint a clerk who is fluent in both English and Spanish.
