Bill > H600

This bill amends existing election laws to allow for electronic delivery and return of absentee ballots for voters covered by the federal Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), which provides voting rights to U.S. citizens serving in the military or living abroad. Specifically, it inserts new provisions that permit ballots to be sent to these voters via fax, email, or a secure website, and also allows them to return their completed ballots through the same electronic methods or by mail to their local city or town clerk. The Secretary of State is authorized to create necessary regulations to implement these changes, aiming to make voting more accessible for this specific group of citizens.
