House of Representatives
Session of 2023 - 2024 Regular Session

MEMORANDUM

Posted: February 14, 2024 11:16 AM
From: Representative Milou Mackenzie
To: All House members
Subject: Enhanced Voting Machine Certification and Pre-Election Testing Standards
 
Recent continued failures of Northampton County’s election machines make clear that our current law regarding machine certification and testing is insufficient to guarantee Pennsylvanians have the reliable and accurate elections system that they deserve. I will soon be introducing legislation to expand and formalize requirements for the certification of any voting machine by the Secretary of State, as well as for additional pre-election machine testing in all counties.
 
This legislation is vital to prevent continued mistakes like those experienced in Northampton in 2019 and 2023. Please join me in cosponsoring this important legislation.
 


Introduced as HB2053
