Pros & Cons of Proposed Form Update
 

The PROS of the proposed form update:

#1        Residence Address clearly states “May NOT be a P.O box”

#2        Number 5 offers “NO” first and all four lines are lined up evenly

 

The CONS of the proposed form update:

#1        The size – if the size is truly 7.5 x 6.5, our filing cabinets will not hold them

#2        In our locality, Number 6 is cut off & forwarded to the locality in which the voter has moved from. This new layout does not allow for that.

#3        Number 6 no longer requires a SSN – helps with the clarification of cancellation

#4        The Protected Code Section does not specify that a PO box is required

#5        Spacing Issues – Particularly with Number 3 & Number 6
