Affidavit ballots; require Secretary of State to make status of available through secure portal on his website.

HB 843 requires Mississippi's Secretary of State to create a secure online portal on their official website. This portal would let voters who cast affidavit ballots (used when unable to show ID or verify registration) enter a PIN (like last four SSN digits) to check if their vote was counted within 30 days of an election. If rejected, the portal would display the specific reason for rejection. The bill directly affects voters using affidavit ballots in Mississippi elections, providing transparency about their ballot status. It does not change eligibility rules but adds a verification mechanism for those ballots.
