7 Co-Sponsors

Elections; voter identification containing photograph required; who may register up to and including the day of the election; absentee voting application requirements; absentee voting in person availability; return of absentee ballots. Requires presentation of a form of identification containing a photograph in order to vote and provides that a voter who does not have one of the required forms of identification is entitled to cast a provisional ballot. The bill repeals a provision that would permit any person who is qualified to register to vote to do so in person up to and including the day of the election and limits the persons who are entitled to register to vote after the close of registration records to members of a uniformed service on active duty, persons who are residing temporarily outside of the United States, and their spouses and dependents. The bill limits the period during which absentee voting in person is available from 45 days preceding the date of the election to the 14 days preceding the date of the election. The bill requires that absentee ballots returned by mail be returned to the office of the general registrar by the close of polls on election day and be postmarked on or before the Saturday preceding the date of the election. The bill eliminates the use of drop-off locations for the return of absentee ballots. The bill requires absentee ballot applications to contain the last four digits of the applicant's social security number.

1 Co-Sponsor

Motor Vehicle Dealer Board; examination costs. Authorizes the Motor Vehicle Dealer Board to establish the cost of an examination of licensee records, which existing law requires the licensee to pay if such examination shows a violation of law or order of the Board. The bill removes the authority of the Board to recover such costs in a court of competent jurisdiction and provides that failure to pay such examination costs may be grounds for denying, suspending, or revoking a license or certificate of dealer registration or qualification.
