AN ACT CONCERNING CURBSIDE VOTING ACCESSIBILITY FOR ELECTORS WITH DISABILITIES OR OTHER INCAPACITIES.

SB 1514 creates a formal curbside voting process for voters with disabilities or temporary incapacities who cannot enter polling places. It requires registrars to bring ballots to a designated curbside area, where voters mark ballots privately in the presence of officials (without officials seeing their choices), place ballots in privacy sleeves, and have their names marked as having voted. The bill also establishes a 20-foot buffer zone around curbside areas to prevent solicitation or interference while voters cast ballots, and restricts vehicle occupants during this process. This directly affects voters who cannot access polling places physically but wish to vote in person. The changes take effect January 1, 2026.
