Elections.

Existing law requires that each section of any petition or paper signed by voters, including initiative, referendum, recall, and nominating petitions, have attached to it a specified declaration or affidavit signed by the circulator of the petition or paper, including a certification to the content of the declaration as to its truth and correctness, under penalty of perjury under the laws of this state, with the signature of his or her name at length, including given name, middle name or initial, or initial and middle name. This bill would delete the requirement that the circulator's signature on this certification to the content of the declaration be made at length. Existing law authorizes the formation of reclamation districts to reclaim land that is subject to overflow or incursions from the tide or inland waters. Existing law also authorizes the formation of county waterworks districts to supply water to the inhabitants of those districts for irrigation, domestic, industrial, or fire protection purposes. Under existing law, those reclamation districts and county waterworks districts are authorized to conduct elections by all-mailed ballots, as specified. Existing law establishes mailed ballot election dates. This bill would correct erroneous cross-references within those provisions of law.
