§ 1-5-108. Election Judges May Change Polling Locations and Drop-Off Locations

(1) (a) If it becomes impossible or impracticable to hold an election because of an emergency at the designated polling location, the election judges, after assembling at or as near as practicable to the original designated polling location, may move to the nearest convenient place for holding the election and at the newly designated place forthwith proceed with the election. The election judges shall notify the designated election official of the change as soon as possible.
(b) Upon moving to a new polling location, the election judges shall display a proclamation of the change at the original polling location to notify all electors of the new location for holding the election. The proclamation must contain a statement explaining the specific nature of the emergency that required the change in the polling location and must provide the street address of the new location.
(2) If an emergency renders a drop-off location impossible or impracticable for use in an election, the designated election official shall relocate the drop-off location to the nearest convenient place.
