SB308

Senate Bill 308 proposes to amend Arkansas election law by removing references to write-in candidates from several sections of the Arkansas Code. The bill seeks to repeal existing requirements for write-in candidates, such as the filing of a political practices pledge and the inclusion of write-in candidacy deadlines in election calling documents. Additionally, it modifies language concerning the duties of county boards of election commissioners and the processes for tabulating votes. The bill essentially updates statutory language to align with changes in how write-in candidates are addressed or referenced within the state's election administrative framework. These modifications appear intended to streamline election procedural statutes.
