Existing law provides for a voter to become qualified as a permanent vote by mail voter. Under existing law, a permanent vote by mail voter will be deleted from the list of qualified permanent vote by mail voters if the voter fails to return an executed vote by mail ballot in 2 consecutive statewide general elections.

This bill would, instead, require that a permanent vote by mail voter be removed from the list of qualified permanent vote by mail voters if the voter fails to return an executed vote by mail ballot in 4 consecutive statewide general elections.
