  • Mandates that county recorders cancel voter registrations when receiving written information from the voter or the postal service's national change of address system indicating an out-of-county or out-of-state move.

  • Changes the frequency requirement for using postal service address change data from "on or before May 1 of each year preceding a state primary and general election" to "shall use" on a mandatory basis more frequently as the recorder deems necessary.

  • Requires county recorders to cancel registrations in a previous county of residence when a registrant has changed residence to a new county, rather than providing information on how to continue voting eligibility.
