Establishing penalties for crimes against election officials
HB 100 strengthens penalties for crimes committed against election officials, including poll workers, registrars, and judges of probate. The bill amends existing criminal statutes to explicitly include these individuals as protected persons when defining offenses against election integrity. By updating the legal language, the measure ensures that attacks on these specific roles are addressed with appropriate consequences under current law. This change applies to anyone who commits a crime against these officials during election-related activities.
