The bill establishes a new grant program administered by the secretary of state, specifically aimed at enhancing election security through the purchase and installation of cameras around ballot drop boxes. This program is exclusively available to county auditors and elections directors, ensuring that only designated officials can apply for the funding.

The grant funds are strictly designated for the initial costs associated with the purchase, installation, or connection of the cameras, explicitly prohibiting the use of these funds for any ongoing operational expenses related to the cameras. This initiative aims to bolster the integrity and security of the election process in Washington State.
