 Election Laws   

Disclaimer: The complete election laws are available on-line. A court order, however, struck down all changes to the law in Senate Bill 3 (2017). The on-line election laws currently show the enjoined language. Do not rely on the online law without referring to the court’s decision and Senate Bill 3 to determine the current law. The on-line election laws do not reflect the law presently in effect for voter registration.
