AI Summary

This bill amends existing laws to ensure that mail-in ballots are counted if they are postmarked on or before Election Day and received by election officials within seven days after the polls close, providing a grace period for mail delivery. This change applies to various types of elections, including Presidential elections, overseas ballots, and general mail-in elections, and aims to update election results to include these late-arriving but validly postmarked ballots.
