2-6-301. Duplicate registration form filed in binder Computerized reports List posted.

(a)  Except in those counties which use computerized duplicate registration records, upon issuance of an absentee ballot, the administrator of elections shall remove the voter's permanent registration record from the binder of the polling place and put it in an absentee voting binder in alphabetical order. Upon issuance of an absentee ballot, the voter may not thereafter vote in the election except by absentee ballot. In those counties in which computerized duplicate registration records are used, the attesting official shall update the voter's computerized voter history by making the appropriate data entry.

(b)  All absentee voting applications shall be filed alphabetically by election day in a binder and kept in the county election commission office as a public record through election day. As an alternative, a county election commission may maintain, on a daily basis, absentee voting applications as part of a computer-generated report. Such report is a public record.

(c)  The county election commission shall furnish each polling place with a certified copy of a complete alphabetical list of its absentee voters for each election, and the copy shall be displayed at the polling place throughout the voting hours on election day.
