Existing law requires the Secretary of State, for each statewide election, to prepare and distribute a state ballot pamphlet describing each statewide ballot measure and containing other specified information. Existing law requires the Secretary of State to provide the state ballot pamphlets to county elections officials not less than 45 days before the election, and further requires that the state ballot pamphlets be mailed to voters commencing not less than 40 days before the election. In addition, existing law requires that the Secretary of State furnish a copy of the state ballot pamphlet to the Office of State Printing for preparation not less than 40 days before the date the Secretary of State is required to provide the pamphlets to the county elections officials. This bill, for purposes of the November 4, 2014, statewide general election, would instead require that the Secretary of State provide the state ballot pamphlets to the county elections officials on the 43rd day before the election, and would require that the state ballot pamphlets be mailed to voters commencing on the 38th day before the election. In addition, this bill would require that the Secretary of State furnish a copy of the state ballot pamphlet to the Office of State Printing for preparation on the 40th day before the date the Secretary of State is required to provide the pamphlets to the county elections officials. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
