AI Summary

  • Allows county elections officials to send incomplete voter registration affidavits back on any document of the official's choosing (rather than only a new registration card) for applicants to provide missing information, if telephone contact fails but a mailing address is available.

  • Changes recall petition signature verification requirements from verifying "whichever is less" to "whichever is greater" of either 3% of signatures or 500 signatures when 500 or more signatures are submitted on a recall petition section.

  • Requires information provided on alternate documents to be certified under penalty of perjury as true and correct.

  • Establishes that if the Commission on State Mandates determines the bill creates state-mandated costs, reimbursement to local agencies and school districts shall be made through existing Government Code procedures.
