Plain-language change summary

The recent amendment to Senate Bill 1154 changes the deadline for county recorders to count registered voters in even-numbered years from January 1 to January 2. This shift aligns with moving the primary election date to the first Tuesday in August. This change matters because it gives county officials an extra day to ensure accurate voter registration counts, which is critical for smooth election operations.
