SB 1198 Temporary voter registration procedures for presidential elections.
Introduced by: J. Randy Forbes | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Temporary voter registration procedures for presidential elections. Repeals provisions enacted to allow absentee registration for presidential elections. Virginia now allows absentee or mailed voter registration applications, and this special registration process is no longer necessary to comply with federal law. In addition, other election law provisions meet the requirements of the federal Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act and cover all federal elections. This bill is the same as HB 1777.
