Upon timely receipt of an application for an absentee voter's ballot, the City Clerk will file it. The City Clerk will then check the latest state registration listing to determine whether the applicant is registered pursuant to state statute. If the applicant is properly registered, the City Clerk will deliver to the applicant, personally or by mailing to the address given by the applicant, an official ballot for the election, an identification envelope and a return envelope. However, if the application requests that an absentee ballot be sent by electronic transmission, the City Clerk will deliver the official ballot and instructions by electronic transmission. If an absentee ballot is personally delivered to an applicant, the applicant shall complete the ballot before the City Clerk at the time of delivery. No absentee ballot shall be mailed to a voter who resides within city limits.
