This bill amends section 102.031 of the Florida Statutes to allow photography in polling rooms and early voting areas under specific conditions. The current prohibition on photography is modified to state that photography is not permitted while the polling room or early voting area is open, except for an elector who may photograph their own ballot. Additionally, the bill clarifies that a polling room is considered open until all electors in line have cast their votes.

The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2025. The changes aim to balance the need for voter privacy and security with the rights of individuals to document their voting experience.
