ELECTIONS-COLLEGE ADDRESS

Summary
Amends the Election Code. Requires each public university and college in Illinois, at the beginning of each academic year, to ask each student who is an Illinois registered voter if the student wishes to change his or her voter registration address. If so, requires the school to submit those changes to the appropriate election authorities electronically. Requires election authorities to accept such changes of student address and waives any signature requirement for a change of address with respect to those students.
