§ 1 Elections Code Title

This law simply says that the collection of election rules is called the "Elections Code".

Key Takeaways

  • •It only gives a name to the election statutes.
  • •It does not change any rules or add new requirements.
  • •All future references to election laws can use the term "Elections Code".

Example

A city council wants to refer to the election rules in a meeting and says, "According to the Elections Code..."

Because this law names the set of rules, everyone knows that "Elections Code" means the official election laws.
