voting - Penalty.

A. The presiding officer at a town meeting shall follow

reasonable and necessary procedures to ensure that persons who are

not registered voters of the town do not vote. Registered voters

shall be seated in a clearly marked area separate from persons not

registered to vote.

B. To be eligible to vote at a town meeting, a person must be

registered with the county election board at an address located

within the municipality. Before being seated in the section

reserved for registered voters, each voter shall sign his or her

name in a town meeting pollbook, said signature to constitute a

sworn affidavit on the part of the voter that he or she is eligible

to vote at the election. The pollbook shall be prepared by the

municipal clerk. For such purpose, the municipal clerk or designee

of the municipal clerk shall be authorized to administer the oath or

affirmation contained in the affidavit. The town meeting pollbook

shall be on file in the office of the municipal clerk and shall be

open to public inspection during reasonable office hours; provided,

however, that such town meeting pollbooks may be digitized or

electronically copied and stored by the municipal clerk at the end

of six (6) months from the date of the election wherein such town

meeting pollbook was used. Any person knowingly voting illegally or

found guilty of casting more than one vote for any office or on any

question considered at the meeting shall be punished by a fine of

not more than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00).
