The bill specifies that voters must submit a valid application for a mail-in ballot on the ground of disability, provide an email address, and submit the request at least seven days before the election. Balloting materials sent by email include the ballot, instructions, a signature sheet, and a list of write-in candidates. Voters must return the ballot by mail, and email addresses are kept confidential.
