Elections; revise information sought from persons registering to vote who indicate that they were previously registered to vote in another state, county, or municipality
House Committee Favorably Reported By Substitute
Summary
The bill changes Georgia’s voter‑registration form to ask applicants if they were previously registered in another state, county, or municipality, and to collect the prior address and a signed request to cancel that registration. Registrars must send the applicant’s identifying information to the Secretary of State, who will electronically share the notice with the former jurisdiction and keep a public count of such notices. It also allows Georgia to use similar notices received from other states to cancel a voter’s Georgia registration.
