AN ACT CONCERNING VERIFICATION OF RESIDENTIAL ADDRESSES OF ELECTORS VOTING BY ABSENTEE BALLOT.
SB 656 requires election registrars to send confirmation notices to the residential address of every voter who cast an absentee ballot after an election. The bill mandates that registrars verify whether the address provided on the absentee ballot application matches where the voter actually resides. This applies directly to all absentee voters and election officials responsible for processing ballots. The key mechanism is a post-election verification step to ensure absentee ballot addresses are accurate, as stated in the bill's purpose.
