AI Summary

This bill allows individuals employed by a city or town in Massachusetts on the day of any state primary, state election, or preliminary city or town election to cast an absentee ballot, meaning a ballot cast by mail or in person before election day, as if they were absent from their city or town. This provision aims to further regulate absentee voting by ensuring that election workers have the same opportunity to vote absentee as other residents who may be unable to vote in person on election day.
