Material Omissions from Federal Write-In Absentee Ballots
 

I submitted these comments last night; why are they not here?

B.  If the applicant is not registered, the FWAB may not be accepted as timely for registration unless the applicant has met the applicable registration deadline.  However,  Section 24.2-419 of the Code of  Virginia extends the mail registration deadline to Election Day for a member of a uniformed service on active duty who is normally absent from the county or city of his residence and the spouse or dependent living with that person, so long as they are eligible to be registered.

In the list of material omissions, add

the voter's printed name  (24.2-702.1 B ii)

the voter's residence address at which he is registered to vote  (24.2-702.1 B iv)

C4 is not specific enough; it does not list the requirements in 24.2-702.1 B
