S.F. No. 103 Summary

• Restores voting rights to individuals convicted of felonies upon completion of incarceration or upon sentencing if no incarceration is imposed; voting rights are lost only during periods of actual incarceration for the same offense.

• Updates voter registration and polling place certification language to reflect that individuals are eligible to vote if they are "not currently incarcerated for a conviction of a felony offense" rather than requiring sentence expiration or completion.

• Requires the secretary of state to develop and distribute accurate information about voting rights for people charged with or convicted of crimes to judges, court personnel, probation officers, corrections officials, and the public.

• Mandates that correctional facility officials and probation/supervised release agents provide restored voters with a notice of voting rights restoration and voter registration applications upon release or during supervision for felony-level offenses.

• Takes effect July 1, 2023, and applies to voting rights at elections conducted on or after that date.
