On page 11, after line 5, insert the following:

"NEW SECTION. Sec. 10. The office of the secretary of state must conduct a study to examine the difference in the number of undervotes in jurisdictions that choose to switch their elections from odd-numbered to even-numbered years. The study shall compare the percentage of undervotes in the jurisdiction between the last three elections before and the first election after the switch. The study shall be submitted in a report to the legislature, due by April 1 in the year following the jurisdiction's first even-year election."

Correct the title.

EFFECT: Requires the Secretary of State to examine the difference of undervoting in jurisdictions that switch their elections between their last three odd-numbered year elections and their first even-numbered year election. The report is due to the Legislature on April 1 in the year after the jurisdiction makes the change.
