Absentee voters in Louisiana will deal with several new laws | Louisiana
SUMMARY: With the November election approaching, Louisiana enacted new absentee ballot laws effective August 1. Act 380 limits submissions of marked absentee ballots to one per person, except for immediate family members. Act 302 restricts assistance with ballots to immediate family or election officials, requiring signatures for assistance in nursing homes. Witness requirements include being at least 18 and providing addresses. Missing information on ballots, as per Act 321, will lead to challenges by parish boards, potentially resulting in votes not being counted. Voter registrar offices will attempt to rectify incorrectly completed ballots before the Nov. 4 deadline for submission.
