Bill Summary
ELECTIONS -- Amends and adds to existing law to establish provisions for election day registration and for the use of provisional ballots.
AI Summary
This bill amends and adds to existing law to establish provisions for election day registration and the use of provisional ballots. Specifically, it allows individuals who are eligible to vote to register on election day by appearing in person at the polling place, completing a registration application, making an oath, and providing proof of residence. The bill also establishes a process for the use of provisional ballots, where a judge of elections can provide a provisional ballot to a voter who is not found in the poll book or if the judge is not satisfied with the voter's identification or proof of residence. The provisional ballot envelope is then reviewed after the election, and the ballot is counted if the voter is determined to be registered and eligible to vote.
