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

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to enhance transparency in the electoral process. The effective date of this act is set for 60 days after its passage, which is anticipated to be August 9, 2025.
