IN RE:	HB2860 by Swanson (relating to maintaining certain voter registration information and reviewing ballots voted by mail; creating criminal offenses.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

The bill would not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision. It is assumed that any impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources would not be significant.
