C. E. O.'S THAT COMMITMENT TO

HI TIFFANI MOCK ON BEHALF OF THE
SECRETARY OF STATE ALEX PADILLA
AND SUPPORT AND THANK YOU TO
EVERYONE WHO HAS WORKED SO HARD
ON THIS ISSUE.
VERY GOOD THANK YOU OTHERS IN
SUPPORT.
SEEING NONE A OTHERS IN
OPPOSITION SOME
[inaudible]
WELCOME.
I AYE GOOD AFTERNOON I'M KIM
ALEXANDER PRESENT FOUNDER THE
CALIFORNIA VOTER FOUNDATION I'M
THANK YOU FOR THE COMMITTEE'S
WORK ON THIS SPELL.
AND THESE AMENDMENTS THAT HAVE
BEEN SUGGESTED ARE A HUGE
IMPROVEMENT OVER WHERE THE BILL
HAS BEEN.
AND WE WANT TO SEE THAT FINAL
LANGUAGE FOR THE MOMENTS IN
PRINT BEFORE WE'VE FORMALLY
WOULD REMOVE OUR OPPOSITION BUT
WE DO APPRECIATE HOW FAR THAT.
BILL HAS COME AND PUTTING IN
THIS I SUNSET DATE REALLY DOES
SOLVE OUR CONCERNS ABOUT
ENSHRINING.
PRACTICESINTO A COAT THAT ARE
NOT READY TO BE ENSURING INTO
CODE.
I'M I JUST WANT TO REMIND THE
COMMITTEE.
MEMBERS ON THAT THE PURPOSE OF
POST ELECTION AUDITS IS NOT JUST
FOR ELECTION OFFICIALS TO VERIFY
THAT THEY GOT THE RIGHT RESULTS
BUT ALSO FOR THE PUBLIC TO
VERIFY.
THAT ELECTION OFFICIALS ARE
DOING THEIR JOBS PROPERLY.
AND THAT IS WHY THE ABILITY FOR
THE PUBLIC TO VERIFY THIS
PROCESS WORKED PROPERLY AND
DIDN'T START STOP TOO SOON IS SO
IMPORTANT IT'S WHY WE HAVE
INSISTED THAT IT BE PAPER
BALLOTS AND NOT BALLOT IMAGES.
ON AND THAT'S WHY WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT ALL THE BALLOTS
ARE CONSIDERED AN INCLUDED IN
THIS PROCESS AND AUTOMATED WHICH
WE BELIEVE.
OPENS AT BALLOTS TO AYE MISCHIEF
AN ERROR WE DON'T WANT TO SEE
THAT HAPPEN ESPECIALLY NOW
BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT OUR FOREIGN
ADVERSARIES ARE KNOCKING ON OUR
DOORS KNOCKING ON OUR COMPUTER
SYSTEMS.
AND TRYING AND SUCCEEDING IN
INTERFERING IN OUR ELECTIONS.
SO THIS IS THIS IS WHAT KEEPS
OUR ELECTION SAVE IS THESE KINDS
OF PROCEDURES ALSO ONE HIGHLY
FOR THE COMMITTEE THAT SOME
ISSUES STILL REMAIN EVEN WHEN WE
TAKE CARE OF THESE THREE BIG
ISSUES.
I'M ONE OF THOSE ISSUES IS HOW
DO YOU EXPANDABILITY IT DOES
NEED TO BE EXPANDED OUR TO DO A
FULL RECOUNT ON IF YOU PARTY.
AT REACH THE CERTIFICATION
DEADLINE TO THERE'S GOTTA BE
SOME WAY TO ALLOW. FOR
ADDITIONAL TIME TO BE PROVIDED
TO COUNTY IF THEY GET INTO THAT
SITUATION AND THAT'S NOT
CURRENTLY COVERED IN THE BILL.
I'M WE ALSO HAVE A TRICKY ISSUE
THE DATES FOR RUNNING IN MULTI
COUNTY DISTRICTS IF YOU RUN FOR
THE SENATE AND YOU HAVE TWO OR
THREE COUNTIES IN YOUR
JURISDICTION.
THAT YOU'RE RUNNING IN.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE DIFFERENT
COUNTIES DURING DIFFERENT AUDIT
PROCEDURES AND THAT DOESN'T
SERVE CANDIDATES WHILE THAT
DOESN'T SERVE VOTERS WELL SO WE
HAVE TO A COMEDY. FOR THAT AT
CHALLENGE IN A SYSTEM WHERE NOT
EVERYBODY'S DOING THE SAME THING
ON AND THEN THE OTHER POINT I
WANT TO MAKE IS WE DO FEEL A
PILOT PROJECT WOULD BE SAFER. TO
DO YOU AYE ALTHOUGH WE'RE KIND
OF GETTING ONE DE FACTO BY THIS
SO IT'S IT'S A KIND A WORKAROUND
FOR THAT.
I'M AND JUST AGAIN EMPHASIZE WE
NEED TO SEE THE AMENDMENTS IN
PRINT BEFORE WE WOULD SIGN OFF
BUT I REALLY DO APPRECIATE.
AYE THIS COMMITTING I'M TAKING
SUCH A CAREFUL TIME AND
ATTENTION WITH THE STOCK BECAUSE
IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT AND WE
HAVE TO GET IT RIGHT.
THANK YOU THANK YOU RESULTS IN.
GOOD AFTERNOON MY NAME IS KIM SO
PER AND CULTURE THE VOTING
RIGHTS TASK FORCE JUST THE
STORED OFF WE WILL TAKE NO
POSITION ON THIS BILL --
I'M.
WE HAVE THERE'S A COUPLE THINGS
THAT HAVE NOT BEEN ADDRESSED YET
THAT WE'VE BEEN POINTING OUT
BEFORE. ONE OF WHICH IS THE
ISSUE OF WHEN YOU GET TOWARDS
THE END OF THE CAMPUS PERIOD AND
YOU GOING THROUGH THE THE AUDIT
YOU SEE OUT WE WOULD HAVE TO GO
TO FULL MANUAL RECOUNT.
BUT WE DON'T HAVE TIME WE'VE RUN
OUT OF THE THIRTY DAYS.
THIS IS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED SINCE
BEEN DISCUSSED A BIT BUT IT HAS
NOT BEEN SERIOUSLY ADDRESSED SO.
HOPEFULLY THIS WILL GIVE
ADDRESSED IN THE FUTURE SOME NOW
SO THAT EVERYBODY KNOWS AND WHAT
THE SOLUTION IS GOING TO BE IT'S
NOT EASY SOLUTION.
ARE CERTAINLY --
THE RISK REMAINING AUDIT SHOULD
APPLY TO ALL CONTESTS.
THAT MEANS STATEWIDE AND CROSS
COUNTY IN THERE'S THERE'S
PROBLEMS THERE OF HOW DO YOU
MANAGE DIFFERENT COUNTIES
RUNNING THE I KNOW WHAT IT THE
SAME MARKET.
BECAUSE YOU HAVE.
TO LOOK AT THE MARGIN OF ERROR
MARGIN OF VICTORY.
OVER THE ENTIRE DISTRICT OVER
THE ENTIRE STATE AND THEM SAY
OKAY YOU PULL THIS BALLOT YOU
PULL THAT BALLOT MS NO MECHANISM
TO DEAL WITH THAT.
AND I. WILL FINISH YOUR I'D
GOTTEN SOME OF IT'S GOT AN EMAIL
FROM DR PHILIP START.
NOT EVEN A HALF HOUR AGO AND
HE'S IN EUROPE.
UP BUT I WILL QUOTE HERE.
IF THEY MET AUDITING EVEN ONE
SINGLE STATEWIDE CONTEST BY
BALLOT POLLING WHICH USE THE
EASY WAY TO DO IT.
MET WITH LIMITED MANDATORY
BEFORE THE BILL SUNSETS FOR
EXAMPLE PRESIDENT GOVERNOR I
DEFINITELY BE YET.
AND IT WOULDN'T COST MUCH.

VERY GOOD.
THANK YOU.

OPPOSITION --
WILL BRING IT BACK TO THE
COMMITTEE MEMBERS QUESTIONS
COMMENTS.
I DO WHATEVER I JUST WANNA THINK
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN.
ASSEMBLYMEMBERS QUIRKS FOR BEING
SO WILLING TO WORK WITH US WE
ALL HAD A FEW QUESTIONS WE KNOW
THE INTENT OF THE BILL BUT WE
LIVE IN TRYING TIMES AND RATHER
SCARY TIMES.
SO WE DO WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE
PUTTING IN ALL PROTECTIONS THAT
WE CANCER THANK YOU FOR BEING
WILLING TO WORK WITH THIS
COMMITTEE YOU MISTER CHAIR VERY
GOOD COURSE.
SENATE ALLEN I WANT TO JUST
REITERATE AS WELL I I SURELY
SEARCH YOUR THE CONCERNS OF
COVERING CLEAN MONEY CAMPAIGN
HAD -- AND
WE'RE GOING WELL BECAUSE ABOUT
IT AS WELL BUT I I DO APPRECIATE
WORK WITH THEM AND AND LOOK FOR
TO SEE THIS MOVE FORWARD I WAS
WANTED ANOTHER THE COMMITTEE
STAFF IN THE CHAIR WORKED REALLY
HARD AND TRY TO GET TO A PLACE
WHERE WE CAN GET THIS.
LAND IS IN --
I'M HAPPY TO SUPPORT THE BILL
WITH ALL OF US BUT I WORK HAVING
HAPPENED VERY GOOD --
SAYING A MOTION FOR CENTER LEYVA --
MISTER QUIRK DID YOU WANNA CLOSE
WELL I MEAN.
SO THE ISSUE OF WHAT HAPPENS
TWENTY EIGHT DAYS IF THERE HAS
TO BE A MANUAL RECOUNT.
A PERHAPS THE CHAIR KNOWS WHAT
HAPPENS BUT I THINK THERE THERE
MUST BE A PROCEDURE FOR THAT
ALREADY.
BECAUSE WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT ME
AND DOING RECOUNTS IF YOU COULD
CHECK WITH YOUR STAFF YEAH BUT I
THINK THERE MUST BE A PROCEDURE
FOR THAT --
SHOULD THERE BE DIFFICULTIES MY
GUESS IS THAT THAT'S ALREADY
SOMEWHERE IN LAW.
BUT I JUST DON'T KNOW AND AND WE
CAN DISCUSS IT BUT AGAIN IF YOU
WANT TO TALK WITH YOUR STAFF AND
AND TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THAT
[inaudible]
RIGHT SO.
RIGHT TO SIMILAR WE'RE HEARING
IS THE THE CURRENT LAW APPLIES
ON POST CERTIFICATION TOTEM
CHALLENGES AND THAT THIS IS SORT
OF WHAT PER SEATING THAT OKAY
CERTIFICATION PARA OUR CELL
THERE IS A PROCEDURE SHOULD YOU
HAVE TO GO THROUGH COMPLETE
MANUAL RECOUNT.
FINE THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW --
THAT DAMN.
THE OTHER ISSUE THAT WAS BROUGHT
UP IS SIMPLY CAN'T YOU MAKE THIS
MANDATORY SO ALL COUNTIES WOULD
DO WITH THE SAME WAY IN THE
ANSWERS OF COURSE IF WE DO.
THAT WE HAVE TO PAY FOR IT AND
I'LL NEVER GET IT OUT OF
APPROPRIATIONS.
SO THAT'S THAT'S THE OTHER ISSUE
WITH TRYING TO MAKE IT UNIFORM.
MY OWN FEELING IS THAT WE CAN
WORK WITH THE ASSOCIATION.
ARE THAT THIS IS A BETTER WAY TO
GO I KNOW THIS I'VE TALKED
PERSONALLY WITH THE SECRETARY OF
STATE.
HE WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS STATE
WHY.
ARM BUT GIVEN THE WAY CALIFORNIA
LAW WORKS I DON'T THINK WE CAN
MANDATE IT.
OUR BUT WHAT WE CAN DO IS
CONTROL AND WORK AND I WOULD ASK
ALL THE ADVOCATES WHO ARE HERE
TODAY [inaudible] FOR I BETTER
AUDITS --
BETTER VOTING PROCESSES TO WORK
WITH ME.
ARE TO GET THE COUNTIES THAT
DON'T ADOPT THIS RIGHT AWAY TO
ADOPTED AND THAT MAY MEAN SOME
PRESSURE THESE ARE ELECTED
OFFICIALS.

ACT.
THE LAW REQUIRES US TO REPORT

TWENTY FIRST WHICH OF STARTING
WITH THE TWENTY TWENTY SENSORS
ALLOW THE CITIZEN REDISTRICTING
THE REDISTRICTING COMMITTEE.
ACCOUNT INMATES AS RESIDING AT
THEIR LAST KNOWN PLACE OF
RESIDENCE INSTEAD OF IN
CORRECTION FACILITIES WHERE THEY
ARE HOUSED --
NEW DISTRICT LINES OF BASED ON
CENSUS COUNTS SO IT IS IMPORTANT
THAT INMATES ARE COUNTED AS PART
OF THEIR OWN COMMUNITIES WHICH
BETTER REPRESENT THEM.
AND AB FOR TWENTY THE CDC OURS
ALREADY REQUIRED TO GIVE US
INFORMATION TO THE CITIZEN
REDISTRICTING COMMISSION.
WHAT THIS BILL DOES IT WOULD
MAKE IT THE --
IT WILL MAKE PROCEDURAL CHANGES
THAT WILL HELP CVC OUR EMPHASIS
AND REDISTRICTING COMMITTEE
FULFILL THIS REQUIREMENT.
THAT DATA INCLUDES AN ANONYMOUS
IDENTIFIER BRAVED ETHNICITY AND
LAST KNOWN PLACE RESIDENTS WILL
HELP THE COMMISSION.
DRIVE THAT NEW DISTRICT LINES
DRAW THE NEW DISTRICT LINES IN.
TWENTY TWENTY ONE THIS BILL WILL
PROVIDE WHAT WOULD PROVIDE THAT
AN INMATE'S QUOTE BEST ON PLACE
OF RESIDENCE MEANS THE LET THE
MOST RECENT RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS.
THAT IS SUFFICIENTLY OF SPECIFIC
TO THEIR SITE TO BE ASSIGNED A
SINCE AS A BLOCK WORTH ADDRESS
INFORMATION IS NOT SUFFICIENTLY
SPECIFIC.
A RANDOMLY DETERMINED SINCE IS
BLOCK LOCATED WITHIN THE
SMALLEST GEOGRAPHICAL AREA THAT
CAN BE IDENTIFIED BASED ON THE
INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE
DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS AND
REHABILITATION.
OUR MOST RECENT AMENDMENTS
REFLECT OUR CONVERSATION WITH C.-C. R. TO ENSURE PROPER

A COMMENCES OF THIS BILL
SUPPORTED BY THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN

I WANT TO THANK THE STAFF OF OF

STAFF BASICALLY DO SOME
CLARIFICATION OF IT AND AND TIED
UP THE BILL A LOT MORE.
WITH ME TODAY IS KAREN MCDONALD
THE DIRECT DATABASE AND
ELECTIONS ADMINISTRATION
RESEARCH CENTER AT UC BERKELEY I
RESPECTFULLY ASK WE AYE VOTE.
VERY GOOD THANK YOU BECAUSE WE
DON'T.
THANK YOU --
SO ALICE ARM.
BOB ARUM DOCTOR WEBER JUST SAID
I'M THE DIRECTOR OF THE
STATEWIDE DATABASE WHICH IS A
JOB THAT I'VE HEARD SINCE
NINETEEN NINETY FOUR AND THIS IS
THE REDISTRICTING DATABASE FOR
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
WE WILL BE IMPLEMENTING THIS
BILL BASICALLY BY DOING THE DATA
ADJUSTMENTS --
THIS THEY WERE DATABASE JUST IN
GENERAL IT'S A LONGITUDINAL
DATABASE THAT BUILDS ON DATA
SAID.
DATE DATASETS OVER TIME SO THAT
POPULATION PARTICIPATION AND
VOTING TRENDS CAN BE ASSESSED --
WE COLLECT DATA FROM EACH COUNTY
REGISTRAR OF VOTERS FOR EACH
STATEWIDE ELECTION AND THEN WE
PROCESS THE DATA AND THEN
PROVIDE TO PUBLICLY THROUGH --
AT THE WEB.
PAT AT THE END OF EACH DECADE
NGUYEN MARCH OR THE PREVIOUSLY
COLLECTED DATA SO ARE TO THE NEW
CENSUS DATA AND GEOGRAPHY TO
BUILD A REDISTRICTING DATASET.
FOR USE BY EVERYBODY BUT MOST
IMPORTANTLY OF COURSE BUT THE
CITIZENS REDISTRICTING
COMMISSION NOW THAT THE LAWS
CHANGED.
AND THE STATE WERE DATABASE IS A
TRANSPARENT PUBLIC AND
NONPARTISAN PROJECT LOCATED ON
THE UC BERKELEY CAMPUS.
THIS BILL IS IMPORTANT FOR A
NUMBER OF DIFFERENT REASONS IT
STREAMLINES THE DATA TRANSFERS
SO THAT WORK ON INTEGRATING THE
DATA INTO THE REDISTRICTING DATA
SECOND START EARLIER.
AND THAT WILL ALLOW FOR
POTENTIAL PROBLEMS TO BE WORKED
OUT DOCUMENTATION TO BE CREATED
FOR THE NEW DATA SAID SO THAT
THE CITIZENS REDISTRICTING
COMMISSION WHICH WILL OF COURSE
BE BRAND NEW AT THAT POINT --
WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT THEY WANT
TO USE THE ADJUSTED DATA.
IT CLARIFIES THE DATE ON WHICH
THEIR CDC ARE DATA SHOULD BE
CURRENT.
ARE OFF ASKED THE SAME DATE ON
WHICH THE CENSUS CORRECT STOOD
TWENTY TWENTY INFORMATION.
AND IT ALLOWS THE CDC ARE TO
SHARE INFORMATION ABOUT INMATES
POPULATIONS RACE AND ETHNICITY
SO THAT THE CENSUS DATA CAN BE
ADJUSTED ON BOTH ENDS.
BECAUSE WERE TAKEN AT ARE DON'T
RUN AND IN THEM WERE
DISTRIBUTING IT TO TO THEIR
PREVIOUSLY KNOWN ADDRESS AND
THEN FINALLY THERE WAS ONE
AMENDMENTS OR AT THE MOST
IMPORTANT AMENDMENT ARE SHE
SINCE IT CAME FROM THE ASSEMBLY
WAS SET IT CLARIFIES THE ACTORS
INFORMATION.
DODD -- THEY
ARE SUPPOSED TO GIVE TO US SO
THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT
THIS BILL.
THE BILL DOESN'T PASS IT WOULD
REALLY CREATE SIGNIFICANT
PROBLEMS IN MAKING THE
ADJUSTMENTS THAT AB FOR TWENTY
THE POLICY PASS IN TWENTY TEN
HOUSING BUT HAD ENVISIONED. FOR
EXAMPLE WE ONE WOULD NOT BE ABLE
TO ADJUST THE RACE AND ETHNICITY
DATA AT ALL.
AND YOU KNOW THE DATA SAID OR
MAY NOT BE FROM THE SAME DATE SO
WE WOULD POTENTIALLY.
JUST RUN INTO A LOT OF PROBLEMS.
SO TO SUMMARIZE AGAIN AS DOCTOR
WEBER SAID THIS BILL IS MOST
PEOPLE TECHNICAL DETAILS AND I'M
VERY HAPPY.
TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS VERY
GOOD THANK YOU.

ALPHABETICAL ORDER I JUST DIDN'T
HAVE THEM IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER
EARNED NUMERICAL EXCUSE ME OKAY.
SO WE'LL GO VOTE BY MAIL
TRACKING --
AB.
TWENTY TWO EIGHTEEN VERY GOOD.
FOR THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND
SENATORS.
IN ALL BUT ONE STATE ONE
ELECTION SINCE TWO THOUSAND NINE
A MAJORITY OF CALIFORNIA VOTES
HAVE BEEN CAST.
ARE ON GO BY MAIL BALLOTS.
CALIFORNIA LAW ALREADY REQUIRES
COUNTIES TO HAVE A FREE ACCESS
SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS A VOTE BY
MAIL VOTER TO DETERMINE IF HIS
OR HER BALLOT WAS RECEIVED BY
THE ELECTIONS OFFICIAL.
AND IT WAS COUNTED THOSE SYSTEMS
ARE IMPORTANT IN HELPING
MAINTAIN VOTERS CONFIDENCE THAT
THEIR BALLOTS ARE COUNTED.
BUT OTHER JURISDICTIONS HAVE
ADOPTED MORE EXTENSIVE VOTE BY
MAIL BALLOT TRACKING IN
NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS THAT CAN
HELP IMPROVE VOTER PARTICIPATION
AND REDUCE THE NUMBER OF VOTE BY
MAIL BALLOTS THAT ARE
INVALIDATED.
AB TWENTY TWO EIGHTEEN REQUIRES
THE SECRETARY OF STATE TO
DEVELOP A SYSTEM FOR USE BY
COUNTY ELECTIONS OFFICIALS THAT
ALLOWS OF VOTER TO RECEIVE TEXT
OR EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS ABOUT THE
STATUS OF HIS OR HER VOTE BY
MAIL BALLOT.
AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE POSTAL
SYSTEM AND AS IT IS PROCESS BY
THE ELECTIONS OFFICIAL.
NOT ONLY WILL THE SYSTEM GIVE
VOTERS GREATER PEACE OF MIND
WHEN CASTING A BALLOT BY MAIL.
BUT IT ALSO HELPS ELECTIONS
OFFICIALS TAKE STEPS TO REDUCE
THE NUMBER OF OPEN NOW BALLOTS
THAT ARE UNABLE TO BE COUNTED.
AB TWENTY TWO EIGHTEEN IS
SUPPORTED BY SECRETARY OF STATE
ALEX PADILLA AND THE ACLU OF
CALIFORNIA AMONG OTHERS AND IT
HAS NO OPPOSITION.
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
VOTE AND WITH ME TODAY'S TIFFANY
MOCK.

REJECTED FOR SIGNATURE MISMATCH.
IN THE NOVEMBER TWENTY SIXTEEN
ELECTION SOMEWHERE BETWEEN
THIRTY AND FORTY FIVE THOUSAND
VOTERS HAVE THEIR BALLOTS
REJECTED FOR THIS ISSUE HAVE AN
UPDATED SYSTEM THAT WILL ALLOW
VOTERS TO REALLY TRACK THEIR
BALLOTS IN REAL TIME AND HELP.

ISSUES WOULD BE A GREAT
IMPROVEMENT AND WE STRONGLY
SUPPORT THIS THANK YOU VERY GOOD

WE DON'T WANT THIS STORED IN THE
VOTERS RECORD BECAUSE VOTERS
DON'T LIKE TO PROVIDE.
THIS INFORMATION IN THE VOTERS
RECORD BECAUSE I DON'T CAMPAIGNS
TO CALL THEM AND IT'S OPTIONAL
SO I JUST HOPE THAT AS THIS
PROGRAMS WORKED OUT THE
SECRETARY STATE WILL FIGURE OUT
A WAY.
THAT THE SENSITIVE DATA THAT WE
WANT VOTERS TO GIVE TO ELECTION
OFFICIALS WILL REMAIN PRODUCTION
OFFICIALS ARE NOT.
GOT A CAMPAIGN THAT THAT'S WHERE
VOTERS DON'T WANT IT TO GO SUCH
IS THAT HOW YOU NOTING THEY

IN SEPTEMBER OF TWO THOUSAND
SIXTEEN UNDER STATE LAW CERTAIN
VOTER REGISTRATION INFORMATION
INCLUDING NAMES HOME ADDRESSES
TELEPHONE NUMBERS AND EMAIL
ADDRESSES.
IS MADE AVAILABLE FOR RESTRICTED
USE BY CAMPAIGNS JOURNALISTS AND
ACADEMIC RESEARCHERS THE LAW IS
UNCLEAR WHETHER INFORMATION
RELATED TO SIXTEEN AND SEVENTEEN
YEAR OLD.
PRE REGISTRANTS CAN BE DISCLOSED.
FIVE WOULD CLARIFY THAT THE
INFORMATION OF MINERS WHO WILL
NOT BE EIGHTEEN BY TE TIME OF
THE NEXT ELECTION BE KEPT
CONFIDENTIAL AND PROHIBITED FROM
DISCLOSURE.
THIS BILL WOULD ALSO EXPAND THE
EXISTING REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
TO ENSURE THAT COUNTY THAT
COUNTIES ELECTION THAT COUNTY
ELECTIONS OFFICIALS PROVIDE THE
SECRETARY OF STATE.
WITH INFORMATION ON PERSONS WHO
HAVE PRE REGISTERED TO VOTE.
ACT I'M HEARTENED BY THE EARLY
ENGAGEMENT BY SOMEBODY YOUTH AND
IT'S OUR OBLIGATION TO PROTECT
THEIR PRIVACY --
ALSO HAS A MISTER CHAIR
APPRECIATE THE CONVERSATIONS
THAT WE'VE HAD ABOUT THE NEED TO
GET MORE CREATIVE ON HOW TO
ENGAGE YOU --
UNTIL AFFORD TO HAVE A MORE
CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THAT --
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
VOTE.
WE GET A ANY OTHERS IN SUPPORT
HERE.
IT NAY MA FOR ME HALF THE
SECRETARY OF STATE ALEX PADILLA
IN SUPPORT.
A VERY GOOD OTHERS IN SUPPORT.
WELCOME BACK AND HER.
WE HEAR FEW MORE TIMES BUT THE
LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF
CALIFORNIA IS --
AND STRONG SUPPORT OF THIS BILL
VERY GOOD THANK YOU OTHERS
[inaudible]
ANYONE OPPOSITION [inaudible]
SEEING NONE.
I'LL JUST SAY THAT I APPRECIATE
YOU BRINGING US FOR WE WANT
YOUNG PEOPLE TO FEEL CONFIDENT
WHEN THEY'RE PRE REGISTERING FOR
THEIR PARENTS ALSO THAT THEY'RE
GONNA HAVE THEIR THEIR
INFORMATION PROTECTED --
BUT FOR THE RECORD I ALSO WANT
TO GET SOME CLARIFICATION THAT --
THE SORT OF PARTNERSHIPS THAT
WE'RE ENVISIONING TO FURTHER
STIMULATE YOUTH VOTER IN YOUTH
CIVIC ENGAGEMENT WHICH IS.
QUICKLY ANEMIC AT THIS POINT --
EIGHTEEN TO THIRTY FIVE YEAR
OLDS ARE THE LOWEST.
VOTING DEMOGRAPHIC IN THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY AS WELL AS IN THIS STATE.
AND WE BELIEVE THAT HAVE IT
STARTS YOUNG THAT IT REALLY DOES
START IN HIGH SCHOOL --
AND THAT WAITING TILL COLLEGES
ACTUALLY YOU LOOK YOU LOSE THE
STUDENTS BECAUSE THEY LEAVE HOME
AND PEOPLE VOTE WHEN IT MATTERS
TO THEM AT HOME [inaudible]
SO --
BUILDINGS PRIVACY PROTECTIONS I
THINK WILL ACTUALLY MAKE YOU
MORE CONFIDENT BUT I I DO.
WANT TO CLARIFY THAT IN THE IN
THE ANALYSIS IT ALSO MAKES CLEAR
THAT NOTHING IN HERE WOULD
PROHIBIT --
THIS SORT OF YOU THINK GAUGE ON
PARTNERSHIPS WERE INTERESTED IN
CONDUCTING WHETHER IT'S A MOCK
ELECTION IS THE SECRETARY STATE
CONDUCTED --
LAST ELECTION CYCLE WHICH I
THOUGHT WAS HELPFUL IN WE
ACTUALLY LIKE TO SEE IT.
I'LL GO ALL THE WAY DOWN BALLOT
SO YOUNG PEOPLE ARE ABLE.
TO VOTE OF ON SCHOOL DISTRICT
RACES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT RACES --
WHEREVER THE CHIPS MAY FALL ON
THOSE KINDS OF INSTANCES I THINK
THAT'S ALL BE PERMISSIBLE AND
THEN OTHER WAYS IS OR TO
STIMULATE ENGAGEMENT BY.
IDENTIFYING REGIONS WHERE THERE
ARE SOFT SPOTS WHERE WE'RE NOT
GETTING THE UPTICK AND AND IF
WE'RE SEEING PLACE WHERE THERE'S
UNDER REPRESENTATION WE REALLY
WANNA.
GO INTO EITHER THE SCHOOL
DISTRICTS OR THOSE PARTICULAR
SCHOOLS OR EVEN THOSE PARTS OF
CALIFORNIA WHERE YOUNG PEOPLE
ARE JUST --
SITTING ON THE SIDELINES WE
DON'T WANT THIS TO SORT OF BE A
SELF SELECTIVE PROCESS FOR THE
GO GETTERS LIKE OURSELVES WHO
PROBABLY WOULD HAVE PRE
REGISTERED THE FIRST DAY WAS
AVAILABLE --
SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR ENGAGE ON
THIS AND AND WILL WILL WILL
LEAVE THAT FOR FURTHER WORK BUT
IT -- WITH
THAT IN MIND I WOULD ENTERTAIN A
MOTION.
WELL THERE IT IS THAT'S A MOTION --
AND EMOTIONS DO PASSED THE
SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE
[inaudible]
A WHAT'S HER.
NO MEN'S YEAH --
I DIDN'T ALLOW YOU TO CHANCE TO
CLOSE.
RESPECTFULLY ASK BROUGH THANK
YOU THE SIR OKAY SECTOR PLEASE
KALRA.
STERN AYE STERN AYE ANDERSON
ALLEN.
ALLEN AYE HERTZBERG LEYVA LEYVA
AYE.
OKAY VERY GOOD THAT THAT MEASURE
WE WILL LEAVE ON CALL --
FINAL BILL TWO FIVE FIVE TWO YES
SIR OKAY AB --
TWENTY FIVE FIFTY TWO MISTER
CHAIRMAN SENATORS I'M GONNA GO
OFF SCRIPT ON THIS --
ONE THIS IS WHAT I CALL RON'S
LAW.
ANNA AND YOU MIGHT BE ASKING WHO
IS WRONG.
RUNS MY BARBER --
AND IN TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN I
WAS GETTING A HAIRCUT AND HE WAS
ASKING ME ABOUT.
HE LIVES OUTSIDE OF MY DISTRICT
AND HE WAS ASKING ME ABOUT THE
CITY ELECTIONS IN HIS DISTRICT.
ARE IN HIS CITY AND HE SAID WELL
WHO WHO DO YOU LIKE COULD YOU
KNOW AND YOU KNOW WHO'S WHO DO
YOU THINK I SHOULD SUPPORT.
AND I SAID WELL THEY GOT TO
INCUMBENTS AND THEY'RE BOTH GOOD
SO YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR THEM IF
YOU WANT --
TO AND THEN THERE TWO PEOPLE
RUNNING OUT FOR THE OPEN SEA --
AND THEY'RE BOTH GOOD AND AND
AND HE SAID WE WE WAIT I CAN
ONLY VOTE FOR ONE PERSON.
AND I SAID NO IT'S A CITY
ELECTION ACTUALLY YOU CAN GO FOR
THREE PEOPLE THERE THREE CITY
COUNCIL SPOTS THAT ARE OPEN.
IRAN'S AN IMMIGRANT FROM TURKEY --
WHO WHO SPEAKS ENGLISH VERY WELL
READ YOU KNOW UNDERSTANDS
ENGLISH VERY WELL BUT SOMETHING
ABOUT THE BALLOT IN THE BALLOT
FORMAT HE'D MISSED THAT YOU
COULD VOTE FOR THREE PEOPLE --
AND IT MADE ME WONDER HOW MANY
OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE UNDER
VOTING.
BECAUSE NOT BECAUSE THEY WANT TO
NOT BECAUSE THEY WANT BILL A
VOTE BUT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T
REALIZE THAT THEY COULD VOTE FOR
MORE THAN ONE PERSON AND THINGS
LIKE CITY --
ELECTIONS ESPECIALLY THE CITY
ELECTIONS ARE DIFFERENT THAN
THAN STATE AND FEDERAL --
AND SO THAT CONVERSATION WITH
RON GOT ME THINKING ABOUT HOW WE
CAN IMPROVE BALLOT DESIGN SO
THAT ELECTION RESULTS BETTER
REFLECT THE ACTUAL DESIRES OF
THE ELECTORATE --
AND THE NEED FOR RETHINKING
BALLOT DESIGN RULES WAS
UNDERSCORED BY RECENT LOS
ANGELES TIMES ARTICLE THAT
HIGHLIGHTED THE POTENTIAL FOR
VOTER CONFUSION AT THE JUNE
GUBERNATORIAL PRIMARY ELECTION.
OF THAT ARTICLE RAISE CONCERNS
THAT DUE TO THE LARGE NUMBER OF
CANDIDATES RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR
FOR U. S. SENATOR BALLOT DESIGN
ISSUES MAY LEAD TO VOTER
CONFUSION.
SOMEWHERE THAT THE JUNE TWENTY
SIXTEEN PRIMARY ELECTION WHEN
THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF OVER
VOTES IN THE U. S. SENATE RACE --
SO THIS BILL IMPROVES BALLOT
DESIGN INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE A
VOTERS ABLE TO FIND IT READ AND
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ACCURATELY.
SPECIFICALLY THIS BILL WOULD
REQUIRE CERTAIN INSTRUCTIONS TO
BE BOLDED OR PRINTED NOT
CONTRAST AND COLOR TO IMPROVE
READABILITY.
AND TO ENSURE THAT VOTERS
CLEARLY UNDERSTAND HOW TO MARK
THEIR BALLOT WHEN MAKING
SELECTIONS FROM MORE THAN ONE
CANDIDATE.
ADDITIONALLY THIS BILL REQUIRES
THE SECRETARY OF STATE TO
ESTABLISH A BALLOT DESIGN
ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO MAKE
RECOMMENDATIONSFOR IMPROVING
BALLOT DESIGN AND READABILITY OF
BALLOT INSTRUCTIONS.
AS SPECIFIED OF THIS BILL IS AN
IMPORTANT FIRST STEP TOWARD
ADDRESSING A SPECIFIC ISSUE THAT
WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION.
UP FROM MY BARBER.
RESPECT ASARO VOTE.
THANK YOU.
IS RON HERE TODAY.
OR ANY OTHERS IN SUPPORT --
AND EVEN SUPPORT YEAH PLEASE
COME FORWARD WELCOME MELANIE
BRAZEN I STRONGLY SUPPORT THIS
BILL [inaudible]
THANK YOU [inaudible]
VERY GOOD.
SEEING NO OTHERS IN SUPPORT --
ANY OPPOSITION.
MAN CITY WHOEVER I'M WITH YOU
PEACEFULLY PARTY CALIFORNIA AND
LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE CHAIR.
OF WE HAD DISCUSSION ON THE BILL
AND WHAT WE DON'T HAVE AN
OPPOSITION OR SUPPORT THIS TIME.
WE DID THINK THAT LEFT OUT THE
WHOLE IDEA OF THE CONCEPT OF
BRING CHOICE VOTING --
ASIA WE TALK ABOUT.
A VOTING FOR THREE CANDIDATES
RETIREMENT BLOCK VOTING WHICH IS
REALLY BY ONE THE WERE SYSTEMS
THAT COULD EVER BE HIS EYES BUT
SO.
WELL WERE WHICH FUNDAMENT MAKE
THAT POINT.
BUT IF YOU THINK RESTORE.
AND RAINY EXIT THE CALIPH
THOUGHT WITH GREEN PARTY OF
CALIFORNIANS SACRAMENTO WE'RE
WITH HIM ON THAT TO WE DIDN'T
UNDERSTAND WHY TO BRING TRACE
VOTING INCOME IN YOUR BECAUSE
YOU KNOW THERE'S GOING TO BE
MORE THAN WATCH THIS ONE PARTY
IN THERE SO.
IF YOU POSSIBLY COULD ADD THAT
THAT WOULD BE CERTAINLY CAN LOOK
FORWARD TO THANK YOU.
VERY GOOD THANK YOU FOR YOUR
COMMENTS.
ANY OTHERS IN OPPOSITION. FOR
WITH CONCERNS [inaudible]
S. RELYING --
TRAVELING CALIFORNICUM MONEY
CAMPAIGN WE DO NOT HAVE A FORMAL
POSITION ON THIS BILL ONE WAY OR
THE OTHER BUT WE'D LIKE TO ECHO
THE CONCERNS OF THE PARTIES AND
BE VERY HELPFUL IF THE BILL
WOULD --
ALLOW FOR THAT POSSIBILITY FOR
RAIN CHOICE BUT I THINK YOU.
THINK --
COMMENTS QUESTIONS BRING IT BACK
TO COMMITTEE SO DISSONANT SO
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THOSE THAT
THE FOLKS WHO HAVE RAISED
CONCERNS.
A TREND THAT YOU KNOW AND YOU'RE
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT AND THOSE
JURISDICTIONS WHICH ALLOW FOR
RANKS WAYS VOTING THAT THERE BE
[inaudible]
CLARIFICATION MADE TO HELP
PEOPLE BETTER UNDERSTAND THE
MECHANISM OKAY THAT MAKES SENSE
TO ME ACTUALLY EAT YOU
UNDERSTAND THEIR SEVERAL CITIES
THAT NOT A LOT BUT BUT CERTAINLY
FEW THAT DO HAVING TO IS WHAT WE
JUST SAW THAT IN AND SAN
FRANCISCO.
IT'S IT'S A I'M ELISE FOR FOLKS
WHO ARE USED TO IT IT'S GONE
IT'S UNUSUAL AND LITTLE
CONFUSING.
ARE FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND AND
THE SAME LOGIC I THINK APPLIES
[inaudible]
I YOU HELPING PEOPLE UNDERSTAND.
THEY GOT A VOTE SEVERAL TIMES
BUT DO IT PROPERLY.
ON THE VIEW BECAUSE THIS ISSUE
COME UP BEFORE AND HAVE YOU
THOUGHT OF HOW TO MAKE SURE THAT
THAT IN THE SPIRIT OF VOTER.
INFORMATION IMPROVEMENT WHERE.
WE'RE BEING COMPREHENSIVE.
YES IT IS TRUE THAT IF YOU HAS
NOT COME UP BEFORE BUT IT'S
EXACTLY WHAT THEY SHOULD BE
TRYING TO ADDRESS THAT YOU KNOW
THE PURPOSE OF ASKING THE
SECRETARY OF STATE OR REQUIRE
THE SECRETARY OF STATE.
TO COME UP WITH AN ADVISORY
COMMITTEE IS TO DISCUSS ALL THE
CHANGES WE'VE MADE TO VOTING IN
CALIFORNIA OVER THE PAST COUPLE
YEARS OF THE PAST COUPLE OF
DECADES FRANKLY.
ARE BRING TOWARDS VOTING IS ONE
OF THEMTHE IMPACT OF THE TOP
TWO PRIMARY IS ANOTHER ONE WHERE
OF A SUDDEN YOU'VE GOT. FORTY
PEOPLE YOU KNOW LISTED ON YOUR
BALLOT SO THESE ARE ALL THE
CONGRESS THAT WOULD NOT BE.
WHO DID THE SECRETARY OF STATE'S
ADVISORY COMMITTEE WOULD NOT BE
PRECLUDED FROM HAVING THAT
CONVERSATION OR ANY CONVERSATION
ABOUT -- THE
CURRENT WAY THAT WE VOTE COUNT
SURE BUT I GUESS LIKE MY
QUESTION WHAT WOULD IT BE
POSSIBLE TO CONSIDER LANGUAGE
AND MAYBE WORK OF THE COMMITTEE
ON THIS [inaudible] TWO ON TO
STAND THIS.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT WHAT MEDIAN IN
THOSE AREAS WHERE THERE IS RAIN
CHOICE VOTING FOR THE FOR IT FOR
IT TO BE. FOR FOR FOR VOTER
INFORMATION.
GUIDELINES TO BE STRONGLY
CONSIDER I SUPPOSE ULTIMATELY
ALL YOU'RE DOING HERE IS
[inaudible]
IN BOLDFACE.
INSTRUCTIONS ARE THERE ALREADY
THAT'S THE ONLY ACCESSIBLE THING
IN THIS CURRENT BILL --
THAT THE BIGGER.
OPPONENT FRANKLY IS IS HAVING
THE SECRETARY OF STATE COME UP
WITH AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE TAKE.
DO A COMPLETE EVALUATION AND
PRESUMABLY THEY WOULD BE LOOKING
AT THINGS I SAID IS WHAT I SAID
I WASN'T SURE IF SOME OF THAT
THAT.
FOLKS WERE TALKING ABOUT.
REQUIRING GREAT CHOICE VOTING IN
ALL OF OUR ELECTIONS --
WHICH WHICH IS NOW UNDERWAY
BROADEN THE SCOPE OF THE NO NO
NO I KNOW I I THINK WHAT THEY'RE
TALKING ABOUT IS MAKING SURE.
THAT THERE'S A BETTER PEOPLE
BETTER UNDERSTAND SENATE JUST I
CAN PROVIDE OF CLARITY THIS THIS
WOULD APPLY THOSE
RECOMMENDATIONS ARE.
WOULD APPLY TO RANK CHOICE
VOTING JURISDICTIONS THAT
THERE'S NOTHING THAT NOT ONLY DO
NOTHING PRECLUDING IF BUT WE
WOULD ANTICIPATE.
THE THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE THAT
THIS BILL WOULD SET UP WOULD
LOOK AT THOSE SORT OF IMPROVED
VOTER COMMUNICATION
POSSIBILITIES ON THE BALLOT AND
MAKING IT CLEAR SO THAT A SAN
FRANCISCO JURISDICTION OR OTHERS
WHO HAVE ENGAGED IN RANK CHOICE
VOTING.
NOT TO PRE DETERMINE WHAT KIND
OF PROCESS THEY USE THAT TO MAKE
SURE THAT PROCESS IS TRANSPARENT
SO THAT'S ABSOLUTELY WITHIN THE
SCOPE OF THE BILL AS WE
UNDERSTAND CAR --
YEAH [inaudible]
SO -- SEEING
NO OTHER SAID WITH COMMENTS
QUESTIONS OPPOSITION --
WELL YOU TO CLOSE WE HAD A
CONVERSATION RESPECT ASK FOR A

ISSUES AROUND DISCLOSURE AND
WITH THAT LAST FOR AND I FELT
VERY GOOD THANK YOU --
THE MOTION IS TO PASS THE SENATE
APPROPRIATIONS SO SECRETARY
WOULD YOU PUT CALL THE ROLL
STERN AYE STERN AYE ANDERSON.
ALLEN HERTZBERG LEYVA LEYVA AYE
OKAY WILL MEET LEAVE THEM
MEASURE ON CALL [inaudible]
SO NEXT.
YES MISTER CHAIR I'M TAKING UP
AB TWENTY ONE FIFTY FIVE THIS IS
DISCLOSE ACT CLEAN UP.
TWEAKS TO THE AFOREMENTIONED AB
TWO FOUR NINE THE CALIFORNIA
DISCLOSE ACT PROVIDING OUR
TECHNICAL CLEAN UP TO THIS
LANDMARK LEGISLATION AFTER THE
PASSAGE OF THE DISCLOSE ACT THE
F. PPC HELD A SERIES OF HEARINGS.
DURING WHICH IMPLEMENTATION FOR
THE DISCLOSE ACT WAS DISCUSSED A
SMALL NUMBER OF TECHNICAL ISSUES
WERE RAISED AT THESE HEARINGS
ANY FURTHER CLARIFICATION BY THE
LEGISLATURE. TWENTY ONE FIFTY
FIVE SEEKS TO PROVIDE THAT
CLARITY MORE SPECIFICALLY THIS
MEASURE CLARIFIES DEFINITIONS OF
ADVERTISEMENT.
MASS ELECTRONIC MAILING AND MASS
MAILING AS WELL AS PROVIDES FOR
SOME CLARIFICATION OF THE
FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS AND
TRENT LANG FROM CALIFORNIA CLEAN
MONEY IS HERE TO STAY.
I SPEAK TO ANY QUESTIONS THAT
YOU GREAT.
THANK YOU.
UP.
THANK YOU YES AS A SIMPLE
TECHNICAL CLARIFICATION TO MAKE
SURE THAT THAT --
THAT PPC RULES ARE AS AS WAS
INTENDED AB TWO FORTY NINE AND
AND SOME THE FORMATTING RULES
ESPECIALLY.
AYE WE HAD THE BENEFIT OF OF A
PRIMARY LECTION WHERE THERE ARE
LOTS OF TELEVISION AND PRINT ADS
WE SAW.
SOME OF THEM --
I WOULD SAY MISS USING THE
LANGUAGE IN WAYS THAT WEREN'T
INTENDED SO THIS GIVES
CLARIFICATION TO MATCH WHAT THE
LEGISLATURE VOTED ON LAST YEAR
THANK YOU.
COULD YOU FURTHER ARTICULATE
THAT A BIT JUST WHAT YOU'RE
SEEING SOME OF THE SO ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT THE THE THE BILL
VERY --
SPECIFICALLY --
REQUIRED THAT TELEVISION ADS IN
TH PARTICULAR --
SHOW THAT NAMES THE TOP HONORS
IN A A AERIAL EQUIVALENT FONT --
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE
SEEING IS THAT THEY ARE --
USING AERIAL BUT THEY ARE MAKING
THEM SUPER DUPER NARROW AND
COMPRESSED SO THEY'RE ACTUALLY
VERY HARD TO CHARACTER SPACE
CHARACTER SPACES THE OTHER IS
JUST MAKING IT VERY HARD TO READ
BECAUSE THEY'RE STILL AREA BUT
THEY JUST LIKE USING PHOTOSHOP
TO MAKE THEM SUPER NARROWING
HARD TO READ.
THE OTHER THING WAS --
AMENDED FOR THIS COMMITTEE --
THE BILL HAD A FAIL SAFE TO
ALLOW -- THE
NAMES OF THE TOP THREE
CONTRIBUTORS TO BE --
DECREASED IN SIZE IF IT WOULD
FIT IT WOULD REQUIRE --
THE THE SPACE TO TAKE MORE THAN
THE BOTTOM ONE THIRD OF THE
SCREEN FOR THE BLACK BOX IN AB
TWO FOR MEN ON TELEVISION ADS --
IT WAS MEANT TO BE A FAIL SAFE
AND NOT HAPPEN VERY OFTEN BUT
WHEN WE SAW LOTS OF TELEVISION
ADS WAS THAT COMMITTEES WERE
PURPOSELY MAKING THEIR NAMES
VERY LONG.
HOW MUCH LONGER THAN IS
NECESSARY AND THEN ALSO
FORMATTING BIG WASTE OF SPACE SO
THAT THE NAME OF THE COMMITTEE
UP ABOVE?
TOOK THREE OR FOUR LINES
THEREFORE REQUIREMENT TO GO
ABOVE THE BOTTOM ONE THIRD OF
THE SCREEN AND THEN ALLOWING
THEM TO TRIGGER THE THAT A
REDUCING OF THE SIZE OF THE OF
THE FONTS OF THE TOP
CONTRIBUTORS.
SO OF WHAT WE DID HERE WAS SAID
OKAY IT WAS NOT MEANT TO BE A
STANDARD THING IS MEANT TO BE A
FAIL SAFE --
YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE SIZE OF THE
TOP WINTERS AT 4% AS WE ALWAYS
SHOW THE LEGISLATURE --
AND THEN IN EXCHANGE --
WE ALLOWED THE A INDEPENDENT
EXPENDITURE DISCLOSURE THING
WHICH IS --
FOR INDEPENDENT EXPENDITURES
THIS ADULTS NOT PAID FOR BY A
CANDIDATE --
ALLOW THEM TO MOVE THAT OUT OF
THE BLACK BOX OF THE BLACK BOX
WOULDN'T HAVE TO GO BIGGER THAN
ONE THIRD OF MOVED ABOVE THE
BLACK BOX IN JUST A CONTRAST
THINGS FONT SO.
THAT WAS THE A COMPROMISE KEEP A
BLACK BOX THE SAME SIZE WHILE
KEEPING IT READABLE AS WE
INTENDED.
THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION
I THINK --
YEAH.
YOU NEVER YOU NEVER GET THINGS
PERFECT ON THE FIRST SHOT WE ARE
DARN CLOSE BUT HOPEFULLY WE CAN
GET THIS THROUGH AND AND IN THE
LAW QUICKLY SO THAT.
WE ACTUALLY CAN TIGHTEN UP THE

CENTERS.
THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT AS
IMPLEMENTATION OF SP FOUR FIFTY
THE CALIFORNIA VOTERS CHOICE ACT
BEGINS THIS YEAR MULTIPLE
COUNTIES INCLUDING MY OWN SAN
MATEO COUNTY.
WHILE FEWER LOCATIONS WILL BE
NEEDED ON ELECTION DAY ITSELF AS
YOU KNOW THE NUMBER OF LOCATIONS
NEEDED DURING THE EARLY VOTING
PERIOD IS SIGNIFICANTLY
INCREASED.
UNDER SP FOUR FIFTY PUBLIC
FACILITIES INCLUDING SCHOOLS
LIBRARIES COMMUNITY CENTERS AND
CITY HALLS ARE IDEAL LOCATIONS
FOR VOTES CENTERS.
BEING THAT THEY ARE ALREADY
EQUIPPED WITH INTERNET WIFI
INFRASTRUCTURE NECESSARY FOR
ELECTRONIC VOTING EQUIPMENT
THEY'RE ACCESSIBLE VOTERS ARE
GENERALLY FAMILIAR WITH WHERE
THEY'RE LOCATED IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES.
WITHOUT A RELIABLE POOL OF
AVAILABLE LOCATIONS ELECTIONS
ADMINISTRATORS MAY STRUGGLE TO
FIND ENOUGH LOCATIONS ARE HAVE
TO EXPAND TO EXPAND SIGNIFICANT
RESOURCES ON OTHER COMMERCIAL
LOCATIONS TWENTY FIVE FORTY WILL
PROVIDE ELECTIONS ADMINISTRATORS
WITH MORE RESOURCES AND
ULTIMATELY MAKE CERTAIN.
THAT VOTERS HAVE ACCESS TO VOTE
CENTERS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES

I LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE SECRETARY
DO REFINE THIS MEASURE CURRENTLY
VOTERS MUST REVIEW MULTIPLE
LAYERS OF GOVERNMENT WEB SITES
IN ORDER TO OBTAIN A COMPLETE
LIST OF THEIR ELECTED
REPRESENTATIVES.
THIS IS A LENGTHY AN ARDUOUS
PROCESS THAT CAN ADD TO THE
OVERALL FATIGUE THE VOTERS
EXPERIENCE WHEN STRIVING TO STAY
INFORMED INVOLVED AT THE
LEGISLATIVE PROCESS.
AB TWENTY SEVEN OF SEVEN WOULD
FACILITATE CIVIC ENGAGEMENT FOR

I'VE GOT A BEFORE US TO DO THE
AB [inaudible]
TWENTY ONE TWENTY THREE YES.
AT YOUR DISCRETION PLEASE SEE
WONDERFUL I THINK YOU MISTER
CHAIR FOR ALLOWING ME TO PRESENT
ASSEMBLY BILL TWENTY ONE TWENTY
THREE TODAY.
I THIS BILL WILL PROVIDE LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AND CIVIL RIGHTS
ORGANIZATIONS WITH MORE TIME TO
IMPLEMENT THE TRANSITION TO
DISTRICT BASED ELECTIONS.
BY THE ENACTMENT OF ASSEMBLY
BILL THREE FIFTY IN TWO THOUSAND
SIXTEEN SUCH A SEPARATE THE
CURRENT SYSTEM WHICH GOVERNS
THESE TRANSITIONS.
HOWEVER SINCE AB THREE FIFTY
BOTH LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND CIVIL
RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS HAVE FOUND
THAT MORE TIME IS OFTEN NEEDED
TO IMPLEMENT THESE TRANSITIONS.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFTENTIMES
NEEDS --
MORE TIME TO DO PUBLIC OUTREACH
POSSIBLE RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS
NEED MORE TIME TO HELP UNDER
REPRESENTED COMMUNITIES
ORGANIZED IN ORDER TO HELP.
THEM ADVOCATES ARE FOR THEIR
INTERESTS ASSEMBLY BILL TWENTY
ONE TWENTY THREE WOULD HELP
ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BY PROVIDING
FOR A MUTUALLY AGREED TO
EXTENSION.
OF NINETY DAYS TO IMPLEMENT
THESE TRANSITIONS TO DISTRICT
BASED ELECTIONS.
DURING THIS TIME POTENTIAL
PLAINTIFFS WOULD REMAIN BARRED
FROM COMMENCING LITIGATION
AGAINST A LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNDER
THE CVR .
JUST AS THEY ARE UNDER THE
EXISTING THREE FIFTY SYSTEM I
WANT TO NOTE THAT THIS IS A
CONSENSUS BILL THAT IS SUPPORTED
BY THE LEAGUE OF CITIES.
AS WAS MAULED DEATH ACLU COMING
BECAUSE IS WAS IT --
ASIAN AMERICANS ADVANCING
JUSTICE WITH ME TODAY TO TESTIFY.
IN SUPPORT OF THE BILL IS DANE
HUTCHINGS ON BEHALF OF THE
LEAGUE OF CITIES AS WELL AS
NICHOLAS HIGH DORAN WITH
CALIFORNIA COMING BECAUSE VERY
GOOD [inaudible]
WELCOME [inaudible]
THAT CHER NICOLAS ITEM OF COMMON
CAUSE WE'RE VERY PROUD SPORT AB
TWENTY ONE TWENTY THREE WHICH
HELPED PROVIDE UNDER A PRISON
COMMUNITIES MORE TIME AND
OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE IN THE
INAUGURAL DISTRICTING PROCESS.
I THINK SUPPORT REMEMBER THAT
THE CVA WAS DESIGNED TO ENSURE
THAT UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY
COMMUNITIES HAVE A FAIR
OPPORTUNITY FOR REPRESENTATION
ON THEIR LOCAL GOVERNING BOARDS.
THE MOST COMMON SEE VERY REMEDY
OF COURSE IS REQUIRED DISTRICT
TRANSITION FROM OUT LARGE TO BUY
DISCONNECTIONS WITH HIS LESSEN
THE CHANCE MINORITY VOTE
DILUTION.
BECAUSE THIS CHANGE HAS BEEN
MADE TO EMPOWER UNDER REPRESENT
COMMUNITIES TRULY VITAL THAT
THOSE COMMUNITIES HAVE A VOICE
IN THE SE IN THE PROCESS OF
CREATING THOSE FIRST DISTRICTS.
AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE STRONGLY
SUPPORTING THIS BILL ALTHOUGH
TIME EXTENSION MAY SEEM LIKE A
MODEST CHANGE I CAN ASSURE YOU
THAT THE LOCAL LEVEL THIS CAN
HAVE A HUGE IMPACT WILL WE'RE
HEARING FROM OUR PARTNERS FOR
WORKING ON THE GROUND.
IS VERY HARD TO HAVE THE TIME
ONLY NINETY DAYS TOUCH KEEP YOU
ON THE IMPORTANCE OF DISTRICTING
TO BE ABLE TO GO OUT AND EDUCATE
THOSE COMMUNITIES AND HOW TO
PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS.
TUB ORGANIZES COMMUTING SPLAINE
HOW THEIR COMMUNITIES OF
INTEREST ON HOW THEY'D LIKE SEE
THEMSELVES WERE.
SEVERAL THOSE REASONS WERE VERY
PROUD TO BE IN SUPPORT AND
APPRECIATE WORKING WITH LEAGUE

TO PROVIDE A SAFE HARBOR FOR
LOCAL AGENCIES CONVERTING
DISTRICT BASED --
ELECTIONS BY ORDINANCE --
UNDER CURRENT LAW CITIES FEEL
RUSHED TO ENGAGE STAKEHOLDERS IN
ORDER TO AVOID COSTLY LITIGATION --
AB TWENTY ONE TWENTY THREE
ALLOWS AN ADDITIONAL NINETY DAYS
BASED ON MUTUAL AGREEMENT I TO A
DEAL.
TO HAVE MORE TIME TO ENGAGE WITH
STAKEHOLDERS AND TO INSURE THAT
MAPS WERE DRAWN RIGHT THE FIRST
TIME I THE LAST THING WE WANT IS.
TO I TRY AND WHAT IT ONE OF THE
ISSUES THAT THAT LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS ARE FACING IS THAT
WHILE THERE ARE A LOT OF GOOD
ACTORS OUT THERE AT SUCH AS
KAMIKAZ MALL THAT NEITHER OTHER
FOLKS ARE SOME OF THE OTHER --
BAD ACTORS OUT THERE THAT MAYBE

BUT WITHOUT A DELIGHT TO CLOSE
YET NO THANK YOU I APPRECIATE.
THE SUPPORT OF THIS BILL AND I
WOULD ASK RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR
AYE VOTE VERY GOOD YOU THINKING
THIS MONTH.
MOVING RIGHT ALONG
.
YEAH TIMING IS EVERYTHING
SCOOTED RIGHT THROUGH MR STEINER
RIGHT THROUGH.
VERY GOOD AND YOU HAVE TO
MEASURES KNOWS ARE ONE THE ONE
SIX SIX FOUR THAT ARE GOOD VERY
GOOD.
WHICH WE SEE.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN FIRST
AB SIX SIX FOUR WILL CLARIFY THE
POLITICAL REFORM ACT FOR
CAMPAIGN INVESTIGATION.
BY CODIFYING THE AND F. PPC
LEGAL INTERPRETATION.
IT IS ARGUED DUTY TO ENSURE THAT
INDIVIDUALS DO NOT USE THEIR
CANDIDACY TO UNDULY ENRICH THEIR
FAMILY MEMBERS.
AND THIS BILL WILL DO SO BY
BARRING CANDIDATES FROM PAYING
THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS ABOVE FAIR
MARKET VALUE FOR CAMPAIGN
RELATED SERVICES OR GOODS.
SERVING IN ELECTED OFFICE IS A
PRIVILEGE IN OUR CONSTITUENTS
DESERVE THE UTMOST TRANSPARENCY
IN HOW CANDIDATES TO SUSPEND
THEIR CAMPAIGN DOLLARS.
BY ELIMINATING THIS LOOPHOLE IN
THE POLITICAL REFORM ACT WE HAVE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO EMBRACE
TRANSPARENCY FOR BOTH OUR
CONSTITUENTS.
AND THE FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES
COMMISSION.
I AM JOINED TODAY BY JACK
BLATTNER FROM KAMIKAZ A NON
PARTISAN ORGANIZATION DEDICATED
TO ELECTION TRANSPARENCY.
FIGURE THANK YOU WELCOME.
THAT A GOOD AFTERNOON MISTER
CHAIR --
JACK BY NORTH COMMON CAUSE WERE
IN STRONG SUPPORT OF AB --
SIX SIX FOUR CAMPAIGN FUNDS ARE
HELD IN TRUST FOR CAMPAIGNING IN
OFFICE HOLDING PURPOSES ONLY.
USING CAMPAIGN FUNDS FOR THE
PERSONAL BENEFIT OF CANDIDATES
OR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS ALLOWS
NEPOTISM THAT UNDERMINES VOTERS
BELIEVE THAT ELECTED OFFICIALS
ARE TRULY WORKING FOR THE PUBLIC
INTEREST.
WHILE THERE MAY BE INSTANCES
WHERE AN IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBER
WHO WORKS FOR A CAMPAIGN.
RECEIVES NO SPECIAL TREATMENT.
IT IS OFTEN DIFFICULT TO
ESTABLISH A BRIGHT LINE BETWEEN
A LEGITIMATE POSITION AND A
SINECURE.
IN PART FOR THIS REASON THAT PPC
HAS ADOPTED A BRIGHT LINE RULE.
WHICH AB SIX SIX FOUR CODIFIES.
IT SIMPLY PROHIBITS CANDIDATES
FROM HIRING SPOUSES USING
CAMPAIGN FUNDS --
THIS BILL ALSO CODIFIES THE F.
PPC PROHIBITION ON CANDIDATES
PAYING OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS
ABOVE MARKET RATES FOR THEIR
SERVICES --
WHICH IS ANOTHER MEASURE SURE TO
ENCOURAGE CITIZENS THAT THEIR
CAMPAIGN FUNDS ARE BEING USED
FOR INTENDED PURPOSES ONLY.
I'M SO WITH THAT WE WOULD
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR AYE
BUT VERY GOOD THANK YOU OTHERS
IN SPORT.
SEEING NONE IF ANYONE OPPOSITION.
