The bill introduces new requirements for mailings that include absentee ballot applications or sample ballots sent by committees or private organizations in Minnesota. It mandates that such mailings must contain a clear statement indicating that they are not official communications from a government entity, that the application or ballot was not requested by a government official, and that any enclosed sample ballot is not an official ballot. Additionally, the bill specifies that the required statement must be prominently displayed and that the mailing envelope must be marked to differentiate it from official election mail.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that absentee ballot applications sent by committees or private organizations cannot be preprinted with the voter's registration information, such as their name or address. This aims to ensure that voters provide their information at the time of application submission, thereby enhancing the integrity of the absentee voting process. The proposed changes are codified under a new section in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 211B.
