Butler County is taking steps to apply for an election integrity grant.
The funding is offered through the state as part of this year’s budget.
County officials say they could be awarded as much as $696,000 through the grant, which can be used to help pay for things like printing costs, poll worker training, and paying election workers.
There are a couple of stipulations in the grant. That includes restrictions from taking money from third parties, commit to canvassing of mail-in ballots by 7 a.m., and to start canvassing uninterrupted until completion.
The money would not be available however until 2023 if the county would be awarded the grant.
