VRM in the States: West Virginia
April 12, 2013
West Virginia has passed Online Registration, which will go into effect on July 11, 2013. West Virginia also has electronic pollbooks in at least one county.
West Virginia Secretary of State Natalie E. Tennant has voiced strong support for voter registration modernization. In a September 2010 presentation to the state legislature's Joint Judicial Committee, she notes that VRM reduces administrative costs, is secure, is accessible, has bipartisan support, and would make West Virginia compliant with the National Voter Registration Act. The presentation is below, and also available on the Secretary of State's website here.
