Connecticut General Statutes Title 9. Elections § 9-153b. Additional ballots

(a) If any absentee ballot applicant applies for an additional absentee ballot, such applicant shall note on the application the reason for applying for an additional absentee ballot and shall return the absentee voting set formerly issued to such applicant before another set is issued, provided, if such applicant is unable to return such formerly issued set, such application for an additional ballot shall be accompanied by a statement signed under the penalties of false statement in absentee balloting in which such applicant shall note the reason for such applicant's inability to return such formerly issued set. If such applicant fails to file such a statement, no additional set shall be issued to such applicant. An application for an additional absentee ballot shall only be made by an absentee ballot applicant. Any additional absentee voting set issued under this subsection shall only be either provided in person to the applicant or mailed directly to the applicant at the bona fide mailing address designated by such applicant.

(b) For all absentee voting sets or portions thereof returned under subsection (a) of this section, the municipal clerk shall mark the serially-numbered outer envelope “rejected” and note the reasons for rejection on all absentee ballots and envelopes so returned and shall seal all such absentee voting sets or portions thereof in a package and retain them in a safe place until delivered in accordance with section 9-140c. The municipal clerk shall keep a list of the names of each absentee ballot applicant who has applied for more than one absentee ballot, as provided in section 9-140, together with the serial number appearing on the outer envelope of each absentee voting set issued to each such applicant.

(c) If more than one absentee ballot is received from any elector, the ballot of such elector last received by the municipal clerk shall be counted if no absentee ballot of such elector has already been counted. For all absentee ballots of such elector that are not counted, the municipal clerk shall mark the serially-numbered outer envelopes “rejected” and note the reasons for rejection and shall deliver such ballots in accordance with section 9-140c.
