VOTERS/VOTING: Provides relative to absentee by mail ballots. (8/1/24)

SB 226 amends existing laws regarding absentee by mail ballots by replacing the term "affidavit flap" with "absentee by mail certificate" throughout the statute. These changes update the official terminology used to describe the security envelope that accompanies a mail-in ballot. The bill also removes language that authorized the creation of new administrative rules related to this process. Ultimately, the legislation affects voters who request absentee ballots and the officials responsible for processing and securing those ballots.
