Amending Title 25 (Elections) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in registration system, further providing for SURE system; in voter registration, further providing for approval of registration applications; in records, further providing for public information lists; and, in changes in records, further providing for removal notices, for transfer of registration and for death of registrant.

AI Summary

This bill amends Pennsylvania's election laws to further regulate the state's voter registration system (the SURE system). It requires the Department of State to cross-reference its database of registered voters with local death records at least monthly, leading to the immediate removal of deceased voters from the SURE system. The bill also updates procedures for transferring voter registrations when a voter moves to another state, as well as for updating voter registration records when a voter dies. Additionally, the bill requires organizations or individuals seeking to circulate absentee or mail-in ballot applications to use updated voter registration data from the Department of State.
