Allows 17-year-olds to vote in primary elections if they will be 18 by the general election.

This bill amends the election law to allow individuals who will be 18 years old by the time of the general election to vote in primary elections. Specifically, it modifies the age requirement for voting in primary elections, enabling 17-year-olds to participate if they will turn 18 before the general election. The change takes effect on the same date as a concurrent resolution proposing an amendment to the state constitution regarding voting qualifications.
