3. Tell people the bill affects
Most people don't hear about a state-level bill until enforcement starts. A short note now (not a thread, just a link) gives the people most affected time to plan.
This bill adds new rules for candidates and their representatives at polling places on election day. It stops them from collecting signatures for petitions or asking for campaign money within 250 feet of a voting place. The bill also clarifies that no one can try to influence a voter's decision about any candidate, including write-in candidates, within this same area.
