Overview
This bill removes a specific provision in California’s Elections Code that allowed military and overseas voters to register after the standard registration deadline under certain circumstances. The existing law already allows these voters to register late if they meet specific criteria, such as returning home after military service or being required to move due to military orders. This change simplifies the registration process for military and overseas voters by aligning it with the general conditional voter registration procedures.
Key provisions
- Repeals Section 3108 of the Elections Code.
- Eliminates a specific late registration pathway for military and overseas voters.
- Maintains existing provisions allowing military and overseas voters to register after the deadline under specific conditions.
