Action | 2014 Absentee Material Omissions |
Stage | Proposed |
Comment Period | Ended on 7/21/2014 |
It is quite clear from the comments of professionals who regularly process mailed absentee ballots that the omission of a street identifier or generational suffix is not material but actually trivial. The information supplied by the voter who has requested and returned the absentee ballot still makes it possible for the registrar and electoral board to accept the ballot. Please do not accept these proposed regulations that could hinder accepting these mailed ballots. The Registrars know how to process these ballots and envelopes that may have these minor omissions.
