Bill Summary
This constitutional amendment would ensure that registered voters in this State, who are qualified to vote, have the right to cast a ballot in person on the day of any election in this State, and would permit mail-in ballots to be distributed only to voters who submit a written request for a mail-in ballot. This amendment would bar the Legislature from passing laws, and the Governor from issuing executive orders, that would: (1) limit or deny in-person voting for a registered voter who wishes to vote in person, or (2) automatically distribute mail-in ballots to all voters.
AI Summary
This concurrent resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to guarantee registered voters the right to cast their ballot in person at a polling place on Election Day, and it mandates that mail-in ballots can only be sent to voters who specifically request them in writing, preventing the automatic distribution of mail-in ballots to all voters.
