HB 2875 Summary

• Requires county recorders to send election notices to permanent early voting list voters at least 90 days before March or August elections, asking voters to confirm or update their registration information and indicate whether they wish to continue receiving early ballots.

• Removes permanent early voting list voters whose mailed election notices are returned as undeliverable and who cannot be contacted, unless they submit a new request to rejoin the list.

• Implements a two-notice process: if voters do not return the confirmation form after the first notice, a second notice must be sent, and removal from the list occurs if the second notice is not returned within 30 days.

• Maintains automatic mailing of early ballots to registered permanent early voting list voters who do not notify the county recorder within 45 days before an election that they wish to opt out.

• Prohibits candidates, political committees, and organizations from using return addresses other than the election-conducting political subdivision on early voting list request forms, with civil penalties up to three times production and distribution costs for violations.
