Senate Bill 1297a instructs the Secretary of State’s office to create an online voter registration system – both modernizing our voting systems in Idaho and also providing expanded registration access for Idaho voters. Creating an online voter registration system is convenient for voters and helps reduce errors in processing voter registration. The ACLU of Idaho wants to remove as many barriers as possible for all Idahoans to vote, and this bill makes it easier to register– a win/win for everyone!
