HB 479

HB 479

House Bill 479 repeals the existing section 115.635 and replaces it with a revised version that defines several new “class three election offenses.” These are misdemeanors punishable by up to one year in prison, a fine of up to $2,500, or both (PAGE 1, lines 3-5). If a violation results in death or bodily injury to an election official or their family member, the offense escalates to a class B felony (PAGE 3, lines 54-56).
