Summary
The bill amends the Elections Code so the Secretary of State must provide voting information to military and overseas Californians and create regulations that allow ballots to be returned securely via electronic transmission. It also requires each district’s elections official to have a system for electronic ballot requests and to use standardized voting materials and a sworn declaration. The aim is to make voting easier and safer for Californians serving abroad.
