HB 2114 -- Elections

Sponsor:  Zimmerman

Currently, the election authority in St. Charles County provides
55 ballots for each 50 and fraction of 50 voters who are
registered in a voting district.  This bill requires the election
authority to provide one and one-third times the number of voters
who cast ballots to either a voting district or a polling place
at an election held two years prior.  For general elections, the
election authority will base the ballot requirement on the number
of votes cast four years prior.

The Secretary of State is required to establish procedures by
which election authorities are to offer voters paper ballots,
which may not consist of records produced by an electronic
recording device.  Ballots will be counted as regular ballots
unless the individual casting the paper ballot would have been
required to use a provisional ballot.  Election authorities must
post notices that paper ballots are available, and election costs
will be paid as specified in Section 115.077, RSMo.
