II. Comments on the text of the draft law


J. Voting, counting and establishment of results


There is no requirement that the application for homebound voting be accompanied by documentation certifying that the voter is actually unable to vote at the precinct premises. This has been an issue in past elections and it would be preferable to specify in the law what documentation is needed. This would eliminate any confusion as to what type of documentation is needed to qualify for homebound voting. It would also lessen the possibility that this provision will be abused by electoral subjects.
