Prohibiting the offer or acceptance of anything of value to influence the judgment or conduct of an elector in voting for or against any person or ballot measure.

HB 2074 makes it a class C felony to offer or accept anything of value (such as cash, gifts, or favors) to influence how someone votes for candidates or ballot measures. It directly affects individuals and entities - including businesses, political committees, and organizations - that engage in vote-buying or quid pro quo arrangements. The law prohibits offering incentives in exchange for votes, promising rewards for not voting, or using tactics that could reasonably be interpreted as influencing election outcomes. Key factors courts will consider include how close the action occurred to an election and whether the offer was promotional or informational. This bill strengthens existing election integrity laws by criminalizing vote-buying and expanding liability to cover entities.
