Bill overview
This bill revises provisions related to voter registration in Nevada. Specifically, it requires county or city clerks to affirmatively ask registered voters if they would like to update their signatures on file when a mail ballot signature is questioned. If a clerk contacts a voter, the bill stipulates that the voter’s signature provided becomes their official signature for voter registration purposes. The bill also clarifies that the Secretary of State, not the county clerk, should send certain notices to voters who register or update their information through automatic voter registration, and it makes conforming changes to existing law. It also addresses the handling of voter registration information transmitted by automatic voter registration agencies.
