VOTER ASSISTANCE

Assistance is the actual casting of votes for a voter in accordance with the voter’s wishes. Assistance can be given by a friend or relative, but cannot be given by an officer or agent of the voter’s employer or the voter’s union. A candidate whose name appears on the ballot is also prohibited from assisting a physically incapacitated Vote-by-Mail voter unless the candidate is the spouse, parent, child, brother or sister of the incapacitated Vote-by-Mail voter. This would prohibit precinct committeeperson from giving assistance in a Primary Election. If assistance is given, the name and address of the person giving assistance must be provided on the certification envelope.
