HB 0499 | Election authorities may confiscate unlawful election material |
HB 499 - Currently, it is unlawful for a non-incumbent
candidate to publish, circulate or distribute any material or
recording that would lead voters to believe that the candidate is
an incumbent, and an election authority is required to seize any
such items. This act removes the requirement by providing that
the election authority may seize such items.
