The bill was reformatted from a Senate version to a House floor version, primarily changing the header information and page numbering. The substantive legal text regarding the creation of the State Election Board Voting System Revolving Fund, its funding sources, and effective dates remains unchanged.
TECHNICAL

The document header was updated to reflect the House of Representatives floor version, including a new page number and a note indicating that bold face text denotes committee amendments.

The signature block for the Governor was removed from the end of the bill text, as this section is typically filled out after the bill is enacted.

Page numbers and the committee report section were repositioned and renumbered to match the House floor format.
