Election Law – Absentee Ballot Delivery and Marking
What this bill does
Repealing a provision of law requiring a local board of elections to provide an absentee ballot by facsimile transmission if requested by a voter; altering a certain provision of law to require a local board to provide an absentee ballot by the Internet only if requested by certain voters, rather than to any voter on request; and authorizing the State Board to provide an accessible optional online ballot marking tool for use by certain voters, rather than by any voter, who request to have an absentee ballot sent by the Internet.
