Absentee ballots; change receipt deadline for.
SB 2067 would require absentee mail-in ballots in Mississippi to be received by the county election registrar by 7:00 PM on election day, delivered via mail or common carriers like UPS or FedEx. This change directly affects absentee voters who submit ballots by mail, as ballots received after 7:00 PM would not be counted. The bill amends multiple election code sections to align with this new deadline and standardize ballot handling procedures. These provisions aim to clarify the timeline for ballot receipt and ensure consistent processing across all counties.
