The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 332, aims to amend title 9 of the general statutes to prohibit the unsolicited mailing, delivery, or provision of absentee ballot applications. The new legal language specifies that absentee ballot applications may only be provided to an elector upon their request. This change is intended to ensure that voters receive absentee ballot applications only when they actively seek them, thereby preventing potential confusion or misuse of the application process.

In summary, the bill seeks to enhance the integrity of the absentee voting process by eliminating the practice of sending out applications without a request from the voter. This legislative change reflects a commitment to maintaining secure and responsible voting practices.
