Senate Bill No. 44, Section 2198 was approved by the Governor on September 9, 2013. It states that “Each Internet Web site maintained by the state shall include a hyperlink on the site’s homepage to the online voter registration page of the Internet Web site of the Secretary of State.”
The Register to Vote banner was optional, but it is now required by law.
