Arkansas election board approves voter registration rule

A permanent rule requiring “wet signatures” on Arkansas voter registration forms except at select state agencies was approved by the State Board of Election Commissioners Monday morning. Following the rule’s approval, which had no voiced dissent, the board also voted to submit it to the Arkansas Legislative Council’s rule committee for consideration at its August meeting. If approved, the rule prohibiting electronic signatures would take effect Sept. 1. An emergency rule is already in place but has been challenged in court. Mary Hennigan, Arkansas Advocate.
