An act to amend Section 3014 of the Elections Code, relating to elections.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1325, as introduced, Borgeas. Vote by mail voting.

Existing law provides procedures by which any registered voter may apply to receive and vote a ballot by mail. Existing law requires an elections official to send a second vote by mail ballot to a voter if the voter states under penalty of perjury that the voter did not receive, lost, or destroyed the voter’s original ballot. Existing law requires the elections official to track and keep records of vote by mail ballots, as specified, for the purpose of verifying that a voter has not attempted to vote twice, thereby rendering both ballots void.

This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
