Electronic-mail address of covered voter: Request by local elections official; confidentiality; use; standing request for electronic delivery of military-overseas ballot for certain period

1. The local elections official shall request an electronic-mail address from each covered voter who registers to vote. An electronic-mail address provided by a covered voter is confidential and is not a public book or record within the meaning of NRS 239.010. A local elections official may not release a covered voter’s electronic-mail address to a third party. A local elections official may use the address only to communicate with the covered voter about the voting process, including transmitting military-overseas ballots and election materials if the covered voter has requested electronic transmission, and verifying the covered voter’s mailing address and physical location, as needed. A request for an electronic-mail address under this subsection must describe the purpose for which the electronic-mail address will be used and state that any other use or disclosure is prohibited. 2. A covered voter who provides an electronic-mail address may request that his or her application for a military-overseas ballot be considered a standing request for electronic delivery of a ballot for all elections held through December 31 of the year following the calendar year of the date of the application or another shorter period the covered voter specifies. The local elections official shall provide a military-overseas ballot to a covered voter who makes a request for each election to which the request is applicable. A covered voter who is entitled to receive a military-overseas ballot for a primary election under this subsection is also entitled to receive a military-overseas ballot for the general election.
