Voter registry list-voter ID and absentee ballots.
Wyoming's HB 5 updates the official voter registry list to include each registered voter's unique state-generated identification number and details about absentee ballot requests and returns. This change affects all registered voters in Wyoming by expanding the information maintained in the official election records. The bill amends existing election code definitions to specify that the registry list must now contain these two new elements, while clarifying that other personal details like Social Security numbers remain confidential. The law takes effect July 1, 2023.
