Summary
Existing law requires that a person, in order to be eligible to register to vote, be a United States citizen, a resident of California, not in prison or on parole for the conviction of a felony, and at least 18 years of age at the time of the next election. This bill would specify that, for purposes of those eligibility requirements and all other purposes of the Elections Code, "in prison or on parole for the conviction of a felony" includes incarceration in a county jail, or other alternative sentence, resulting from a felony conviction.
