Back to EpisodesAlaska House Passes Bipartisan Election Bill
Description
Alaskas House of Representatives passed a bipartisan elections bill, Senate Bill sixty-four, to modernize voting and clean up voter rolls. Key changes include prepaid postage for absentee ballots, a new ballot tracking system, and quicker election results. The bill targets outdated voter rolls by mailing notices to verify residency for people with ties to other states. Inactive voters can respond within forty-five days or risk being inactive for twenty-eight months. The bill also allows ballot curing within ten days via phone, email, or mail, and includes a rural liaison to help remote areas with polls and workers. The bill heads back to the Senate for approval this week.
