The bill amends various sections of Wyoming's Election Code to clarify the definition of "qualified elector." Key changes include specifying that a qualified elector must be at least eighteen years of age on the day of the "next" election and must have been a bona fide resident of Wyoming for at least thirty days prior to that election. The language that previously stated "at which he may offer to vote" has been removed, streamlining the qualifications for voters.

Additionally, the bill makes conforming changes across multiple sections to ensure consistency in the definition of a qualified elector. It emphasizes that no person can be considered a qualified elector if they are currently adjudicated as mentally incompetent or if they have been convicted of a felony without having their civil or voting rights restored. The act is set to take effect on June 1, 2026.
