Hawaii HB473 establishes automatic voter preregistration and registration for students aged 16 and older in public, charter, and private schools.

Hawaii HB473 aims to increase voter participation by establishing a process for automatic voter preregistration and registration for students aged 16 and older in public, charter, and private schools. The bill mandates that schools collect voter registration information from eligible students, with options for online and in-person preregistration. The collected information is to be transmitted to the appropriate county clerk, who will determine if the student is already registered.
