SECTION 11-203
Special federal voters; designation of means of transmission by special federal voters
Election (ELN) CHAPTER 17, ARTICLE 11, TITLE 2
§ 11-203. Special federal voters; designation of means of transmission
by special federal voters. 1. A special federal voter may designate a
preference to receive a voter registration application, a special
federal ballot application or a special federal ballot by mail,
facsimile transmission or electronic mail. Such designation shall remain
in effect until revoked or changed by the special federal voter. If a
special federal voter does not designate a preference, the board of
elections shall transmit the voter registration application, special
federal ballot application or special federal ballot by mail. If a
special federal voter designates a preference for facsimile transmission
or electronic mail but does not provide the necessary facsimile number
or e-mail address, the board of elections shall transmit the voter
registration application, special federal ballot application or special
federal ballot by mail and request the omitted information. All
communications to the special federal voter shall include the mailing
address of the board of elections.

2. Irrespective of the preferred method of transmission designated by
a special federal voter, a special federal voter's original completed
voter registration application, special federal ballot application and
special federal ballot must be returned by mail or in person
notwithstanding that a prior copy was sent to the board of elections by
facsimile transmission or electronic mail.
