ELECTIONS – Amends existing law to require certain anti-fraud measures to be employed to ensure election ballots are secure.

Idaho's H 310 requires county election officials to implement specific anti-fraud measures to secure ballots, directly affecting county clerks and election administrators. The bill mandates unique identifiers (like non-sequential barcodes), security paper, watermarks, or holograms on all ballots to prevent duplication or tampering, while maintaining voter secrecy. County clerks must test these measures before each election and document their implementation and ballot chain of custody. The law takes effect July 1, 2025, applying to all counties using optical scan, paper, or voting machines.
