This version of SB 12 transitions from an engrossed bill to an enrolled act, making one substantive addition while removing procedural documentation. The bill now explicitly prohibits the nomination or election of candidates to any office through ranked choice voting, codifying this restriction in Indiana Code section 3-5-4-16 with an effective date of July 1, 2026. Administrative changes include removal of the appendix containing committee reports and votes, and updating the preamble to reflect the bill's enrolled status after passage through both chambers.
