RÉSUMÉ DIGEST
ACT 236 (SB 23) 2023 Regular Session Bernard
Existing law allows a registrar of voters to provide for an alternate location to conduct early
voting if the registrar's office space is insufficient or inconvenient to accommodate voters.
New law requires the secretary of state to make the determination to whether the office space
of a registrar of voters is insufficient to conduct early voting and use of an alternative early
voting location is allowable.
Prior law required an alternate early voting location to be in the courthouse or in a public
facility in the immediate vicinity thereof.
New law allows an alternate early voting location to be in an accessible and conveniently
located public facility within the parish.
Effective August 1, 2023.
