NVRA-Voter Registration Agencies  


  • RULE NO.: RULE TITLE:
    1S-2.048: NVRA-Voter Registration Agencies
    NOTICE OF CHANGE
    Notice is hereby given that the following changes have been made to the proposed rule in accordance with subparagraph 120.54(3)(d)1., F.S., published in Vol. 37 No. 38, September 23, 2011 issue of the Florida Administrative Weekly.

    Based upon written comments received for the public hearing and from the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee, subsection (7) has been revised to remove the option of submitting voter registration activity reports in an electronic format prescribed by the Department. Subsection (8) has also been revised to clarify that the application made available online should also be available for print since current forms online do not allow a person to save inputted data online. In addition, reference to 42 USC 1973gg (National Voter Registration Act) is changed to section 97.012(7) and (9), Florida which references the state’s coordination of NVRA activities. Additionally, the title of the rule will read State and Federal Designated NVRA Voter Registration Agencies-Responsibilities in order to distinguish it from private persons or entities who solicit and collect voter registrations as Third-party Voter Registration Organizations that are governed by a very different provision of law.
