The Act says that county clerks must provide a live video feed of ballot counting.
Requires each county clerk in this state to provide a live video feed to be made available to the public through the Internet of rooms in which ballots are tallied and official ballot drop sites. Requires each county clerk to cause the live video feed to be recorded and made available to the public through the Internet for at least two years following the election at which the live video feed was provided.
Some counties have tried to push observers to a distance that they might as well forbid observing. This bill will meet ADA requirements, allowing more people to volunteer as observers on a live feed, without accommodations. It also doesn’t prevent physical observers.
