Expands early voting locations to include city halls, public libraries, courthouses, places of worship, civic centers, convention centers, community centers, county government centers, conference centers, community colleges, universities, colleges, and any other supervisor-designated locations meeting state requirements.

Removes the requirement that early voting sites must be permanent facilities designated and used as such for at least 1 year prior to an election.

Requires each county to operate the same total number of early voting sites used in the 2012 general election, or a minimum of one site plus one additional site for every 50,000 registered voters, whichever is greater.

Changes early voting period for general elections from 10 days before to 15 days before the election, and from 3 days before to 2 days before the election, while maintaining 10 to 3 days before for other elections.

Establishes mandatory early voting hours of 12 hours per weekday and 12 hours total per weekend at each site, with sites opening no earlier than 7 a.m. and closing no later than 7 p.m., and requires preprinted ballots equal to the previous general election's turnout at each location.
