Voter Registration Drive Form.
HB 127 requires North Carolina's State Board of Elections to create a sample voter registration form for use by organizations conducting organized voter registration drives. The form must clearly distinguish itself from official registration materials, include disclaimers that it is not a valid form, and provide information on where to obtain official forms, deadlines, and online registration. Organizations must register with county election boards before conducting drives, providing details like their structure, number of forms needed, and whether participants are paid or volunteers. Using the official voter registration form for drives is prohibited, with violations classified as a Class 2 misdemeanor. This bill applies to all organized voter registration activities in North Carolina starting when it becomes law.
