SCR 4 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Requesting Joint Committee on Government and Finance study security of WV elections

SCR 4 is a Senate Concurrent Resolution requesting the Joint Committee on Government and Finance to study the security and integrity of West Virginia elections. The study must examine the practicality and feasibility of implementing single-member Senate districts (currently used for the House of Delegates) and gather input from the Secretary of State, county clerks, and others on technological, financial, security, and timeline considerations. The committee is required to report its findings, conclusions, and any necessary legislation to the 2027 Legislature. This resolution does not change election laws but directs a study to inform future decisions.
