SB 378 - This act designates the paper ballot as the official ballot. Specifically, all electronic voting systems are required to produce results from paper ballots marked by hand, or in the case of disabled voters who need assistance, from paper ballots marked by a paper ballot marking device designed to assist such voters. Additionally, the use of remaining direct-record electronic voting machines shall be phased out upon mechanical failure.
This act is substantially similar to provisions in SB 113 (2019), HB 543 (2019), SCS/HB 2208 (2018), SB 1067 (2018), SB 399 (2015), SCS/SB 623 (2014) and similar to SCS/SB 375 (2013), SB 542 (2012), SB 418 (2011), and HB 1490 (2010).
