An Act amending the act of June 3, 1937 (P.L.1333, No.320), known as the Pennsylvania Election Code, in preparation for and conduct of primaries and elections, further providing for peace officers, no police officer to be within one hundred feet of polling place, exceptions and presence of soldiers prohibited; and, in penalties, further providing for police officers at polling places.

This bill updates Pennsylvania election laws to restrict police and federal law enforcement officers from standing within one hundred feet of polling places during primaries and elections, aiming to prevent intimidation. While officers are generally barred from this area, the law allows exceptions for those voting, serving warrants, or maintaining order if specifically requested by election officials or voters. The legislation also prohibits soldiers from being present at election sites and mandates that polling locations inside police stations must be in separate rooms. Any officer found in violation of these distance restrictions without a valid exception faces criminal penalties, including fines or imprisonment.
