Summary
The VOTE Act amends the 2002 Help America Vote Act to set clear, minimum notice rules for any voter whose assigned polling place is different from the one used in the most recent federal election. States must inform voters by mail, phone, text or email at least seven days before the election and post the information online, on social media and at the old site. The goal is to reduce confusion and make sure voters can cast a ballot even if changes happen late.
