The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 511, aims to amend chapter 147 of the general statutes to require that ballots used with optical scan voting tabulator systems include a visible watermark security feature. This addition is intended to enhance the security and integrity of the voting process by making it more difficult to produce counterfeit ballots.

The bill does not specify any deletions from current law but focuses solely on the insertion of the requirement for a visible watermark on the ballots. This measure is part of a broader effort to ensure the reliability of election materials and to bolster public confidence in the electoral process.
