Electronic voting system definition modification and certain voting system rules and instructions to be made available and acknowledged by a voter using mobile phone technology authorization
This bill modifies Minnesota election laws to formally define and regulate the use of mobile voting technology, allowing voters in jurisdictions that authorize it to receive and submit ballots via mobile devices. It updates state statutes to include mobile voting technology within the definition of electronic voting systems and establishes specific security requirements such as multifactor authentication, encryption during transmission, and the ability to print ballots in standard formats. The legislation also requires that voting rules and instructions be made conspicuously available to voters using mobile technology before they cast their ballots, while permitting municipalities to test experimental electronic voting systems without permanent adoption.
