Amends existing law to provide for automatic voter registration through the Division of Motor Vehicles.

No negative impact to the state general fund is anticipated. Every state that has adopted automatic voter registration has seen significant savings with respect to staff time, paper processing, and/or mailing, among other expenses. Online voter registration has been fully implemented, thus the facilities already exist for registering voters through the processing of electronic information. Pertinent voter data required for voter registration is already being collected by the various Departments of Motor Vehicles, and could be readily transmitted to election offices throughout the state.
