- Title
- Voting, statewide voter registration database, identifying voter address changes, Electronic Registration Information Center removed as verification database
- Description
Under existing law, beginning in February 2025, the board of registrars or the Secretary of State must use change-of-address information supplied by the United States Postal Service through the National Change of Address database and at least one other voter registration database, such as the Electronic Registration Information Center, to identify registered voters whose addresses may have changed.
This bill would remove the Electronic Registration Information Center as a voter registration database that the board of registrars or the Secretary of State may use to identify voters whose addresses may have changed.
