AI Summary
This bill reduces the time for mailing and receipt of voter registration applications to the constitutional minimum. Specifically, it amends the New York Election Law to change the deadline for submitting voter registration applications from the 25th day before an election to the 15th day before, and the deadline for receiving those applications from the 20th day before an election to the 10th day before. This change shortens the timeline for the voter registration process, bringing it in line with the constitutional requirements.
