AI Summary
This bill requires the availability of an accessible mail-in ballot for voters with disabilities. It specifies that when a county clerk receives a request for an accessible mail-in ballot from a voter with a disability, the ballot must be sent to the voter electronically. The accessible mail-in ballot must include features such as electronic delivery, readability using electronic interfaces and braille displays, the ability to mark selections and make changes, confirmation of selections, printing, and the option to return the ballot electronically if the voter is "electronic return eligible." The bill also outlines the process for completing and submitting the accessible mail-in ballot, and requires the Secretary of State to issue uniform guidelines for election officials to implement these provisions.
