Current through Register Vol. XLI, No. 36, September 6, 2024

Section 153-13-4 - Crediting of Voter Record

4.1. Any voter who votes at an early voting community voting location shall immediately be given credit in the uniform voter registration system, or an electronic poll book system, as the case may be, and the clerk shall take all necessary steps to prevent a voter from voting more than once. In community voting locations that do not have secure internet access available, the poll workers shall call the County Clerk's office, before allowing the voter to vote, to determine if the voter has already voted at another location, and to give immediate credit in the uniform voter registration system.

4.2. If internet access to the uniform voter registration system is temporarily interrupted, the voter may:

4.2.1. Wait until access has been reestablished; or

4.2.2. Go to another location to vote early; or

4.2.3. Vote a provisional ballot. The provisional ballot will not be counted unless it is confirmed at canvassing that the voter did not vote a second ballot.

4.3. W. Va. Code § 3-9-17 makes it a misdemeanor for any person to vote more than once in the same election.
