Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Counties without all-mail voting must do outreach

Counties that do not meet the rules for all-mail elections must run a voter education and outreach plan. The plan finds and registers unregistered voters and encourages voting. It must explain online registration and preregistration, vote-by-mail and ballot tracking, options for military, overseas, and disabled voters, and language help. It must also list in-person voting options and key election dates. The Secretary of State and each county post the current plan online, replacing the prior Section 2105 framework.

Reimbursement for state-mandated local election costs

If the Commission on State Mandates finds this law creates state-mandated costs, local agencies and school districts get reimbursed. Payment follows existing Government Code rules starting at Section 17500. The law does not set a dollar amount.

Template and updates for county outreach plans

The Secretary of State provides a template for county outreach plans. County election offices must send any plan changes by October 1 of each odd-numbered year. This sets a common format and a regular update schedule.
