Item 1

 
A. The voter's name;

 
B. The name under which registered, if changed;

 
C. Date of birth; and

 
D. Former street residence and mailing address.

 
The registrar who receives the notice shall remove the name from
the voting list if the registrar is satisfied as to the identity
of the person and the registrar need not send the notice required
by section 162-A. The Secretary of State may facilitate the
delivery of such notices electronically using the central voter
registration system.

 
Sec. 16. 21-A MRSA §122, sub-§4, as amended by PL 1995, c. 459, §14,
is further amended to read:

 
4. Election day registration. The registrar shall accept
registrations of applicants who appear in person on election day.
The registrar shall issue to each of these applicants a
certificate entitling the applicant to be placed on the incoming
voting list at the voting place. Only one certificate may be
issued to a person. An applicant whose address has changed since
the applicant last voted must vote using the ballot or ballots
for the new polling place, if applicable, on election day.

 
Sec. 17. 21-A MRSA §122, sub-§5, as repealed and replaced by PL 2001,
c. 310, §4, is amended to read:

 
5. Alternative registration schedule for absentee voters. If
the clerk receives a properly completed absentee ballot
application that is signed by a person who is not a registered
voter in the municipality, a presumption of the person's
qualification as a voter is established. The clerk shall send an
absentee ballot to the voter at the address indicated, along with
a voter registration application under section 152. The
completed registration application must be returned to the clerk
by the close of business on the 10th business day before the
polls on election day in order for the ballot to be counted and
may not be sealed with the voted absentee ballot. If the
application is received during the closed period and the
registrar is not satisfied as to the person's qualification as a
voter, the registrar shall follow the requirements of section
121, subsection 1-A to place the person's name on the incoming
voting list and challenge the absentee ballot.

 
Sec. 18. 21-A MRSA §122, sub-§6, as amended by PL 1997, c. 436, §23,
