Electronic registration
A. A person who has a valid Louisiana driver's license or Louisiana special identification card issued
pursuant to R.S. 40:1321 may apply to register to vote or make changes to his existing registration by
completing and submitting an electronic voter registration application on the secretary of state's website.
B. The secretary of state shall design and implement a system to allow for electronic voter
registration as provided in this Section.
C.(1) The electronic voter registration application shall contain spaces for the information required
pursuant to R.S. 18:104, except that the applicant shall attest that the facts given by him on the application
are true to the best of his knowledge and belief, and such attestation shall take the place of the affidavit
required pursuant to R.S. 18:104.
(2) The applicant shall assent to the use of his Louisiana driver's license or Louisiana special
identification card signature for voter registration purposes.
(3) The applicant shall not be allowed to submit the application unless it is complete.

shall be checked to ensure that the Louisiana driver's license number or Louisiana special identification card
number submitted by the applicant matches the information maintained by the Department of Public Safety
and Corrections.
(b) If a match is made, the secretary of state shall electronically forward the information provided
in the application, along with a digital copy of the applicant's signature obtained from the Department of
Public Safety and Corrections, to the appropriate registrar of voters to determine the eligibility of the
applicant in accordance with Chapter 4 of this Title. The applicant shall be immediately informed that his
application has been electronically forwarded to the appropriate registrar of voters, but that the applicant will
not be officially registered to vote or that changes to his existing registration will not be made until his
application is received and approved by the registrar of voters.

instructed to print his completed application and mail it to the registrar of voters for the parish in which the

applicant is informed pursuant to Subparagraph (C)(4)(b) of this Section that his application has been
electronically forwarded to the appropriate registrar of voters by the secretary of state.
E. The secretary of state may employ additional security measures to ensure the accuracy and
integrity of electronic voter registration applications.
