This bill mandates that municipalities are required to post copies of election return forms on their official websites and in public locations. Specifically, it introduces a new paragraph to RSA 659:73, which states that the city or town clerk must post these election return forms within seven days following an election. The forms should be displayed in the two locations where the municipality typically posts notices for its governing body meetings, which can include the municipality's main website and any social media accounts they utilize.

The bill does not delete any existing legal language but adds this new requirement to enhance transparency in the electoral process. The effective date for this act is set to be 60 days after its passage, ensuring that municipalities have a clear timeline to comply with the new posting requirements.
