Bill overview
This bill changes how West Virginia handles potential election fraud. Currently, county prosecuting attorneys handle these cases. This bill requires the Secretary of State to refer instances of election fraud to the Attorney General for prosecution instead. This shift aims to provide a more consistent and potentially more robust approach to investigating and pursuing election fraud allegations.
