(1)The local election official shall request an electronic mail address from each
covered voter who applies to register to vote after July 1, 2014. An electronic mail
address provided by any voter may not be made available to the public or any
individual or organization other than an authorized agent of the local election
official and is exempt from disclosure under the Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS
61.870 to 61.884. The address may be used only for official communication with
the voter about the voting process, including transmitting military-overseas ballots
and election materials if the voter has requested electronic transmission, and
verifying the voter's mailing address and physical location. The request for an
electronic mail address shall describe the purposes for which the electronic mail
address may be used and include a statement that any other use or disclosure of the
electronic mail address is prohibited.
(2)A covered voter who provides an electronic mail address may request that the
voter's application for a military-overseas ballot be considered a standing request for
electronic delivery of a ballot for all elections held after the date of the application
through the next regular election or December 31 of the year of the application,
whichever is later, or another shorter period the voter specifies. An election official
shall provide a military-overseas ballot to a voter who makes a standing request for
each election to which the request is applicable. A covered voter who is entitled to
receive a military-overseas ballot for a primary under this subsection is entitled to
receive a military-overseas ballot for the regular election.
