Plain-language change summary

The recent amendment to SB 1213 changes the authority responsible for creating the election procedures manual from the Legislative Council to the Secretary of State. This matters because it centralizes the responsibility for election guidelines under the Secretary of State, who is directly involved with election processes, potentially leading to more consistent and effective management of voting procedures in Arizona.
