It is the intent of the Legislature that voter registration be maintained at the highest possible level. The Secretary of State shall adopt regulations requiring each county to design and implement programs intended to identify qualified electors who are not registered voters, and to register those persons to vote. The Secretary of State shall adopt regulations prescribing minimum requirements for those programs. If the Secretary of State finds that a county has not designed and implemented a program meeting the prescribed minimum requirements, the Secretary of State shall design a program for the county and report the violation to the Attorney General.
(Enacted by Stats. 1994, Ch. 920, Sec. 2.)
