Arkansas Legislature Approves Bill Creating Permanent Division to Investigate Election Integrity Issues


By Shane Trejo

The state of Arkansas has passed legislation creating a permanent division to investigate important election integrity issues, in what may serve as a blueprint for other states to combat institutionalized voter fraud.

The legislation that created the investigative division, HB 1513, reads as follows:

(a) There is created within the Attorney General’s Office the Election Integrity Unit.
(b) The purpose of the Election Integrity Unit is to aid the Secretary of State and the State Board of Election Commissioners in the completion of their duties related to the investigation of election crimes and the security of elections.
(c) The director of the Election Integrity Unit shall be known as the “Director of the Election Integrity Unit” and shall be appointed by the Attorney General.
(d) The Attorney General may also appoint staff to ensure the efficient operation of the Election Integrity Unit, including without limitation:
(1) Assistants;
(2) Nonsworn investigators;
(3) Professional staff; and
(4) Clerical staff.
(e) The Election Integrity Unit shall be based in Little Rock, Arkansas.

The measure was approved by the Arkansas House on April 3 by a 83-9 vote and then was passed in the Arkansas Senate by a unanimous 30-0 vote. It now is on the desk of Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and she is expected to sign the legislation into law in the upcoming days.
