Affidavit ballot; allow to serve as voter registration in certain situations.
(S) Died In Committee
Summary
The proposal would treat a valid affidavit ballot as a voter registration when a person tries to vote in a precinct where they are not yet registered but are otherwise eligible. It would also allow the ballot to serve as a written request to change precincts and automatically reactivate voters placed on inactive status if they cast such a ballot. The measure seeks to lower voting barriers for eligible Mississippians who lack proper ID or registration.
