AN ACT CONCERNING THE ABSENTEE VOTING PROCESS.

SB 507 (2025 session) changes absentee voting rules by requiring all absentee ballots to be counted only on election day, not before. It standardizes how towns process absentee ballots prior to election day and allows election officials to contact voters to fix unsigned ballot envelopes. These changes directly affect voters who request absentee ballots and local election officials managing the voting process. The bill aims to create uniform procedures across all municipalities while ensuring ballot envelopes are properly completed.
