Bill > H688

This bill establishes same-day voter registration in Massachusetts. Under this legislation, eligible individuals can register to vote at their polling place or an early voting site on the day of an election by presenting proof of residence and completing an affidavit of registration. Registered voters will be able to vote immediately after registering. The bill also outlines the acceptable forms of proof of residence, such as a valid photo ID or other documentation demonstrating the registrant's name and address. The legislation includes provisions to maintain the integrity of voter registration records and address allegations of illegal voter registration or voting. Violations of this law would be subject to the existing criminal penalties for election-related offenses.
