This bill would require most voters who receive a mailed ballot to return it in person at a polling place with valid voter ID. Exceptions are provided for voters who are overseas, in the military, or who have applied to return a ballot by mail for legal reasons. It also sets requirements for the number and hours of ballot drop boxes and requires that drop boxes be attended by at least two poll workers. The bill updates election forms and procedures, includes provisions for tracking ballots, and specifies what personal information must be redacted from political disclosure reports, with penalties for improper disclosure. Starting in 2029, mail ballots will only be sent to voters who request them.
