What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law allows a pupil who is 16 or 17 years of age and who is enrolled in
a public or private school or in a tribal school to be appointed by the municipal clerk
to serve as an election inspector at the polling place serving the pupil's residence.
The pupil must have the approval of the pupil's parent or guardian and must have
at least a 3.0 grade point average or the equivalent, unless the school board or
governing body of the school establishes criteria for a pupil with a lesser grade point
average to serve as an election inspector.
This bill clarifies that a pupil who is 16 or 17 years of age and who is enrolled
in a home-based private educational program may also serve as an election inspector
if the pupil satisfies the other conditions for being appointed by the municipal clerk.
Under the bill, the administrator of a home-based private educational program may
establish criteria for a pupil with grade point average of less than 3.0 to serve as an
election inspector.
