Action:
Incorporate statutory requirements into regulation on when a ballot is cast
Action 3985
General Information
| Action Summary |
Senate Bill 1027 included a provision that allows an officer of election to cause a machine to accept an optical scan ballot that was rejected due to an overvote. The action allowed within this legislation is directly counter to a regulation currently enforced within the Commonwealth, 1VAC20-60-40.
The changes currently being considered provide an exception to the general rule that a ballot may only be cast by a voter or an officer of election who has been specifically directed to do so by the voter.
