ELECTIONS – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding the form and contents of ballots to be prepared by the Secretary of State.

This bill revises Idaho's election laws to standardize ballot formats and content. It requires the Secretary of State to prescribe uniform ballot forms for all elections, including specific rules for listing candidates and issues statewide versus locally. Key provisions mandate rotating candidate name order based on voter counts (25,000+ voters for some offices, 100,000+ for others) and using alphabetical randomization for other elections. The bill directly affects election officials who prepare ballots and ensures consistent voter experience across the state. It takes effect July 1, 2026.
