VOTERS -- Amends existing law to provide for automatic voter registration through the Division of Motor Vehicles.
VOTERS
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
This legislation will provide for the automatic registration of eligible citizens to vote at the same time that they apply for or renew a driver’s license or state issued identification, unless they opt out of being registered to vote at that time. The act of voting – being able to elect our leaders and set our course as a state and a nation – defines the United States at home and abroad. This legislation aims to facilitate the exercise of this basic right for thousands of eligible citizens who are unregistered or have outdated registrations due to relocation
