Existing law makes it a misdemeanor for a precinct board member, before placing a ballot into the ballot box, to attempt to learn the name on a ballot or to take other specified actions to obtain information from the ballot. This bill would also make it a misdemeanor for a member of the public observing specified election procedures to willfully engage in certain conduct to find out the voter's identity or the voter's ballot choices. Because the bill creates new crimes, it would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
