If a voter submits a Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot for which a Federal Post Card Application was received, the county auditor must accept or reject the ballot in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 203B.24 and 203B.25.
If a voter submits a Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot for which a Federal Post Card Application was not received, the Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot serves as a voter registration, for voters who are eligible to register, in lieu of the voter's Federal Post Card Application. The Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot also serves as an absentee ballot request for absentee ballots in subsequent elections during the period required by Minnesota Statutes, section 203B.17, subdivision 1, paragraph (d). If the voter provided an e-mail address, then the county auditor must record e-mail as the voter's preferred method of delivery. The county auditor must not send a ballot to the voter for the election for which the voter submitted the Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot. If the voter has not already voted and the accompanying certificate is properly completed, the absentee ballot board must accept the Federal Write-in Absentee Ballot.
