The bill proposes an amendment to chapter 115 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri by adding a new section,
115.1700, which outlines the publication of certain election records by local election authorities. It defines a "cast vote record (CVR)" as an electronic record of a voter's ballot selections created through various electronic voting devices.
Under this new section, local election authorities are permitted to publish images of voted ballots and their corresponding CVRs on their websites, with the stipulation that any personally identifiable information is redacted. Additionally, it establishes that these ballot images and CVRs should be retained in accordance with existing regulations for the retention of election records as specified in section 115.493.
