Bill Summary
An act to amend Section 2225 of the Elections Code, relating to elections.
AI Summary
This bill requires county elections officials to take additional steps when the United States Postal Service indicates a voter's mailing address is no longer valid, aiming to ensure voters remain registered and can be contacted. Specifically, if the postal service provides a new mailing address, officials must update the voter's record and send a confirmable notice to that new address. If no new mailing address is available but the voter can still receive mail at their physical residence, officials will send a notice to the residence and remove the invalid mailing address. If a new mailing address isn't provided and mail cannot be received at the residence, a specific notice will be sent to the voter's last known mailing address. These added duties are considered a state-mandated local program, and the bill outlines procedures for reimbursement if the state incurs costs.
