AN ACT RELATING TO ELECTIONS -- MAIL BALLOTS

Summary

The bill updates Rhode Island’s mail‑ballot rules so that eligible service members, overseas citizens, and certain disabled voters can use the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) and an approved electronic system to request and return absentee ballots. It removes the need for witnessed or notarized signatures on those forms. The changes aim to simplify voting for these groups while meeting federal security standards.
