California recently made it possible for unregistered voters to register to vote on-line. If the individual already has a California Drivers License or state ID card, the entire process can be handled via the internet. An individual needs to add the state ID number, and the last four digits of the Social Security Number, and the date of birth. See this story. Certain other states have already been allowing on-line voter registration. The new method for voter registration may make it easier for minor parties to retain, or obtain, their place on the ballot. Parties need registration of 1% of the last gubernatorial vote to be ballot-qualified.
