. In order that a voter be fully informed of the permissible
uses of personal information supplied by him or her for the purpose
of completing a voter registration affidavit, local elections
officials shall post on any local elections official's Internet Web
site relating to voter information, and the Secretary of State shall
print in the state ballot pamphlet and post on his or her Internet
Web site, a statement identical or substantially similar to the
following:
"Information on your voter registration affidavit will be used by
elections officials to send you official information on the voting
process, such as the location of your polling place and the issues
and candidates that will appear on the ballot. Commercial use of
voter registration information is prohibited by law and is a
misdemeanor. Voter information may be provided to a candidate for
office, a ballot measure committee, or other persons for election,
scholarly, journalistic, political, or governmental purposes, as
determined by the Secretary of State. Driver's license and social
security numbers, or your signature as shown on your voter
registration card, cannot be released for these purposes. If you have
any questions about the use of voter information or wish to report
suspected misuse of such information, please call the Secretary of
State's Voter Protection and Assistance Hotline.
"Certain voters facing life-threatening situations may qualify for
confidential voter status. For more information, please contact the
Secretary of State's Safe At Home program or visit the Secretary of
State's Web site."
