NY A10956

Requires the New York State Board of Elections to establish a secure website and mobile application allowing voters to track their absentee ballot status without creating an account.

Website and mobile application must verify user identity through methods determined by the board and update information daily.

Voters can view whether the board has received their absentee ballot request, approved or rejected it (with rejection reasons), mailed or delivered their ballot, and received their completed ballot.

Voters can track the status of mailed absentee ballots using United States Postal Service intelligent mail barcode or successor technology.

Voters can view whether their completed ballot was determined invalid and, if so, the reason for such determination.
