SB202 last bill standing and signed into law today after House changes accepted.

The Liberals will make it out to be a big deal but honestly not much changed. IT IS NOT ELECTIONS OVERHAUL. The changes aren't SWEEPING.

Ballots are on paper that can authenticate the ballot but not identify the person

You have to vote in precinct if you want your local votes to count.

Early in person voting hours actually extended.

No excuse absentee remains but you can't send applications to people that haven't requested them...no big deal. Applications not official also have to state where they came from.

Have to use driver's license or similar for application and absentee (STILL LESS THAT WHAT IS REQUIERD ON SITE)..there is still a solution in place IF you don't have this ID.

Absentee ballots can be opened and scanned early but not reported

The window to submit for absentee ballots is smaller (not as far out and not as close to election). Applications no more than 11 days before the election (giving you plenty of time to receive). You still have 78 days prior to submit applications. OVER TWO DAMN MONTHS.

SOS no longer with Chair the State Election Board (good thing)

No outside funding to election office (no brainer)

Details that require local locations to add machines based on wait times

Require publishing by 10pm on election night total number of votes by each method and absentee as to be counted by 5pm the next day.

No more mobile voting units (unless emergency)

Drop boxes have to be inside and close when polling offices do (duh..stupid to have votes sitting in a box outside, unprotected..if you wanted to go through all that just go vote in person)

No food or drinks (Biden mentioned this today)...WHEN YOU GET 150ft from polling other than self services water. Nobody is gonna die in line 150ft away. People were using this to buy votes. GTFO
