Bill overview
This bill allows counties to offer prospective jurors the option to serve as temporary election board workers instead of fulfilling their jury duty obligation. If a juror expresses interest, the county officer in charge of elections will determine their qualifications and, if suitable, appoint them as a temporary election worker. The bill also clarifies procedures for summoning jurors and outlines exemptions for specific circumstances, such as age or prior election worker service.
