Online Registration Legislation
• Chaptered August 7, 2009 and we went live March 1, 2010.
• Less than 7 months to implement.
• $200,000
How it Works
• Must have Driver License or Driver Permit or State ID Number with a digital signature on file at DMV in order to register online.
• Use signatures from DMV.
• If they do not have a Driver License they can still use the system but will have to print out, sign, and return so we have their signature.
County Process
• Batch uploaded to county every evening– More often in peak times
• County staff review submission and accept registration
• County sends postcard to voter
Efficiency Gains
• Reduce the number of people re-registering with the same information
• Get better quality data straight from the voter– No handwriting issues– Reduce the double-entry by elections staff
• Spread the workload during high registration periods by minimizing the dumping of registration cards at the registration cut-off.
• How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

Surprises
• Average age using the system the first week was older than me.
• Some registration groups still use paper forms so they can track their registrants and build GOTV lists.
