Prop 39 is the bipartisan solution for VOTER ID that improves public trust and confidence in our elections -- while not imposing burdens on voters and still making sure every valid vote counts.
Whether you think voter fraud is a big or small problem, Prop 39’s bipartisan solution for Voter ID will increase public trust and confidence in the election process which is important to the health of our democracy.
Prop 39 for Voter ID keeps mail in ballots so voting remains easy and puts protections in our state constitution to ensure every valid vote is counted. Prop 39 even fixes a serious problem with some mail ballots not being counted because of some voters’ signatures have changed over the years. In the last election more than 100,000 mail ballots were rejected due to signature mismatches. Prop 39 replaces that process with 4 digits from a government ID to ensure every eligible vote is counted.
Prop 39 is a balanced and easy way to implement Voter ID. Under Prop 39, voters would provide a government- issued ID for in-person voting or provide last four digits of a government ID for voting by mail. If they don't have a government-issued ID, Prop 39 requires one to be provided free of charge. Prop 39 also requires election officials to use existing government databases (not cumbersome documents from voters) to verify that only eligible individuals are registered to vote and receive ballots.
