Currently, voters using an absentee ballot are required to certify that they are unable to vote on election day by selecting one of a variety of reasons such as absence from the jurisdiction. This bill allows any eligible voter to vote by absentee ballot without stating a reason.
Individuals who are disabled or part of the address confidentiality program may continue to note these conditions on absentee ballot applications so that existing exemptions and protections will continue to apply to them.
This bill is the same as HB 209 (2019).
