This bill mandates that moderators at polling places designate a specific area for electioneering and provide a schematic of this area to candidates and the secretary of state. The designated electioneering space must be visible and within conversation-level sound of the primary entrance to the polling place, adhering to any local regulations. The bill introduces new requirements for moderators to create and distribute a schematic drawing of the electioneering area within five days after the candidate filing period ends. Additionally, this schematic must be publicly posted, including on the municipality's website.

The bill also defines "designate" as physically marking the electioneering space and establishes penalties for violations, classifying them as a class B misdemeanor with fines up to $1,000. The effective date of the act is set for 60 days following its passage. The changes to current law include the insertion of the schematic requirements and the definition of "designate," while no specific deletions from existing law are noted in the text provided.
