California cuts voter residency to 30 days in November
The California Supreme Court ruled that the voter residency requirement will be 30 days for the November election, with a 20 day deadline for precinct, county, and state registrations. The court also ordered registration through the 20th day before elections, aligning with federal guidance and a U.S. Supreme Court stance that voting is a fundamental right. The decision does not apply to the June primary due to timing. The ruling affects closing lists on the 26th day and may impact clerks’ administrative duties. Plaintiffs Jeffrey Young and Ernestine Isaac, along with groups including the League of Women Voters and NAACP, filed the petitions.
