Amending Title 25 (Elections) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in preliminary provisions relating to voter registration, further providing for definitions; in registration system, further providing for SURE system; in voter registration, further providing for qualifications to register and for government agencies, providing for preregistration data entry and further providing for preparation and distribution of applications; and, in changes in records, further providing for death of registrant.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to provide for a "preregistration" process, where individuals aged 16 and 17 can submit information necessary for voter registration prior to turning 18 and becoming eligible to vote. The bill requires the SURE (Statewide Uniform Registry of Electors) system to contain a code to identify and track preregistration status, and automatically activate the registration of a preregistrant on their 18th birthday. The bill also modifies the eligibility requirements for voter registration to allow for this preregistration process, and requires government agencies to inform individuals about the option to preregister.
