Voter registration in South Carolina requires proof of citizenship and date stamping of applications.

This bill amends South Carolina's voter registration laws to require applicants to provide satisfactory evidence of citizenship. Acceptable forms of evidence include a driver's license, birth certificate, passport, or naturalization documents. The county board of voter registration and elections must date stamp all applications and maintain copies of citizenship documents for two years. The Attorney General must verify the citizenship of registered voters who have not provided satisfactory evidence.
