California Governor Vetoes Bill to Send All Voters Notices Before the Primary, Telling Them How They are Registered

On October 13, California Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed AB 681, which would have required election officials to send two notices to registered voters in advance of a presidential primary, telling them which party (if any) they are registered in. The veto message says the expense would be considerable. In any event, he had already signed SB 72, which lets voters at the primary change parties instantly.

  1. Public party registration lists = PURGE lists loved by commies and nazies.

    NOOOO such lists.


    PR and AppV and TOTSOP

  2. @Richard Winger,

    I think you misinterpret SB 72. It would permit election day registration, with voters voting provisionally.

  3. According to the analysis of SB 72, it does what you say, but it also allows changes of party on presidential primary election days.
