(3) A unique identifier shall be assigned to each legally registered voter in the state. (4) It shall contain the voting history of each registered voter. (5) It shall be coordinated with the driver’s license database of the Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency and the appropriate state agency to assist in the removal of deceased voters. (6) Any election official in the state, including any local election official, may obtain immediate electronic access to the information contained in the computerized list. (7) All voter registration information obtained by any registrar in the state shall be electronically entered into the computerized list on an expedited basis at the time information is provided to the registrar. (8) The Secretary of State shall provide such support as may be required so that registrars are able to enter voter registration information. (9) It shall serve as the official voter registration list for the conduct of all elections. (10) Following each state and county election, the Secretary of State shall provide one electronic copy of the computerized voter list free of charge to each political party that satisfied the ballot access requirements for that election. The electronic copy of the computerized voter list shall be provided within 30 days of the certification of the election or upon the completion of the election vote history update following the election, whichever comes first. In addition, upon written request from the chair of a political party, the Secretary of State shall furnish up to two additional electronic copies of the computerized voter file during each calendar year to each political party that satisfied the ballot access requirements during the last statewide election held prior to that calendar year. The electronic copies provided pursuant to this section shall contain the full, editable data as it exists in the computerized voter list maintained by the Secretary of State.
