Current through Supplement No. 394, October, 2024
Section 72-06-03-05 - Tribal members voting a set aside ballot

In counties that include tribal reservation land, immediately after the election, the secretary of state shall send to the applicable tribal government by electronic mail the names of all individuals whose marked ballot was set aside because the identification provided did not contain current information. Prior to the meeting of the county canvassing board occurring on the sixth day after the election, the tribal government may respond to the secretary of state with correct information that was missing or not current for any tribal member included in the list of individuals who marked a set aside ballot. The secretary of state shall provide a form for the tribal government to use to respond with correct or missing information. A tribal government may use any form prescribed by the tribal government instead of the form provided by the secretary of state, so long as the form is consistent with this section and North Dakota Century Code section 16.1-01-04.1.

Upon receipt of the information provided by the tribal government, the secretary of state shall update the central voter file with the correct or current information and shall notify the county auditor of the county in which the tribal member resides that the set aside ballot for the member must be counted at the meeting of the canvassing board.
