When a voter changes the voter's registered residence address from one county in this state to another county in this state, the voter shall complete a new certificate of registration and file it with the appropriate county clerk. History: 1953 Comp., § 3-4-16, enacted by Laws 1969, ch. 240, § 74; 1975, ch. 255, § 41; 1993, ch. 314, § 17; 1993, ch. 316, § 17; 2011, ch. 137, § 33. The 2011 amendment, effective July 1, 2011, eliminated the requirement that the voter cancel the voter's registration in the county of previous residence. The 1993 amendment, effective June 18, 1993, substituted "complete a certificate of registration and file it with the appropriate county clerk" for "make application with a registration officer of the county of new residence for an affidavit of registration" and corrected a misspelling of "canceling". Am. Jur. 2d, A.L.R. and C.J.S. references. — 25 Am. Jur. 2d Elections § 107. 29 C.J.S. Elections § 52.
