This bill amends and adds to existing law to revise provisions regarding voter identification verification. The key provisions include: - Expanding the acceptable forms of identification for voter registration, including requiring a current Idaho driver's license or ID card, or a current utility bill or bank statement along with a previous Idaho driver's license or ID. - Allowing voters who cannot provide the required ID to complete an affidavit and have their photo taken at the polling place, with the secretary of state conducting random audits of these affidavits. - Creating an "Election Integrity Fund" to provide free ID cards for voting purposes. - Requiring the secretary of state to ensure a new, accurate voter registration is submitted for any voter whose name on record does not match their ID. - Making it a felony to knowingly provide false information on the affidavit in lieu of ID.
