The bill, enacted as Act No. 355, introduces a new definition into the Louisiana Election Code. Specifically, it enacts R.S. 18:2(16), which defines a "qualified elector" or "qualified voter" as a person who meets the legal qualifications to vote and is lawfully registered to do so. This addition aims to clarify the criteria for voter eligibility within the state's election framework.

No existing legal language has been deleted in this bill; it solely focuses on the insertion of the new definition. This change is intended to enhance the understanding of voter qualifications and ensure that the terminology used in the Louisiana Election Code is clear and precise.
