AN ACT RELATING TO ELECTIONS -- REGISTRATION OF VOTERS

Summary

The bill amends the voter‑registration law so that anyone applying for or renewing a driver’s license or state ID who is eligible to vote is added to the voter rolls or has their address updated, unless they decline within 14 days. The DMV must electronically send the applicant’s data to the statewide voter‑registration system and mail a notice explaining the opt‑out and party‑affiliation options. Applicants who do not meet the automatic citizenship‑certification criteria receive a standard voter‑registration form at the time of their licensing transaction.
