CTCL Hosting a Webinar on Automatic Voter Registration at Motor Vehicle Agencies

The National Voter Registration Act, also known as “Motor Voter,” requires states to offer voter registration at their motor vehicle agencies. When a state modernizes its voter registration process, changes must be implemented by election offices and by motor vehicle administrators. As more states pass Automatic Voter Registration (AVR) laws, motor vehicle agency administrators need to understand what that means for their work.

The webinar will feature Sandy Jack, Director of Data Management Services with the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles, and Stephanie Sams, Policy and Legislative Analyst with the Washington Department of Licensing. The discussion will overview the AVR implementation process, its potential pitfalls, and how it can reduce costs and transaction times for motor vehicle agencies.

Key topics of the webinar

  • Why motor vehicle agency administrators should pay attention to AVR implementation

  • What to expect immediately after bill passage

  • Potential pitfalls and how to avoid them

  • Benefits in cost & time savings with a successful implementation process
