relative to the processing of absentee ballots.

HB 294, signed into law by Governor Ayotte on May 29, 2025 (effective July 28, 2025), addresses procedures for processing absentee ballots. The bill modifies how election officials handle absentee ballot submissions, though specific technical changes aren't detailed in the provided context. It directly affects voters who cast absentee ballots and election administrators responsible for processing them. As a procedural bill focused on ballot handling, it does not change voter eligibility or voting rights but standardizes the processing workflow for absentee ballots.
