TO: | Honorable Mary Denny, Chair, House Committee on Elections |
FROM: | John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB2339 by Corte (Relating to the provision of mail ballots to overseas voters and to conforming adjustments to related dates, deadlines, and procedures.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
The bill would amend Election Code, Education Code, and Health and Safety Code to change the deadlines for ballot material mailings, filings, withdrawals, orderings of elections, and certification deliveries related to elections. It would require the Secretary of State to adopt rules as necessary to implement the provisions of the bill.
The bill would require the voting clerk to notify the Secretary of State when the deadline for mailing ballot materials will not be met and require the Secretary of State to monitor the situation.
It is anticipated that any costs to implement the provisions of the bill could be absorbed by existing resources.
