§  11-202.  Registration  and enrollment of special federal voters and   application for special federal ballot. 1.  a. A person,  who,  pursuant   to  this  title, is qualified to vote as a special federal voter may, by   application received by the state board of elections or any local  board   of  elections  on  or  before  the  twenty-fifth  day next preceding any   election in which such person would be entitled to vote or the last  day   of  local  registration  for such election, whichever is later, apply to   the board of elections of the county in which he resided in person or by   personal application by  mail  for  registration  and  enrollment  as  a   special  federal  voter.  An application for registration and enrollment   pursuant to this article shall  be  treated  as  an  application  for  a   special  federal  ballot for every election in which the applicant would   be eligible to vote which is held through and  including  the  next  two   regularly  scheduled  general  elections  held  in  even numbered years,   including any run-offs which may occur.b. A person who, pursuant to the provisions of this title, is  already   registered  as  a special federal voter, may, by application received by   the state board of elections or any local board of elections,  apply  to   the  board  of  elections  of the county in which he is so registered in   person or by mail for a special  federal  ballot.  Such  an  application   shall  entitle  such  a  voter to receive a ballot for every election in   which such voter is entitled to vote which is held through and including   the next two regularly scheduled general elections held in even numbered   years, including any run-offs which may occur, provided,  however,  such   application  shall  not  apply  to  any  election  held on or before the   seventh day after receipt of such application.c. Insofar as the provisions of this chapter providing  for  permanent   personal  registration and enrollment, and enrollment by mail or special   enrollment, and voting in person or by absentee ballot do  not  conflict   with  any  provision  of  this  title,  such provisions shall apply to a   person authorized to register and vote under this title; in the case  of   any  such  conflict,  the provision of this title shall prevail and such   other provision of this chapter shall not apply.  For  the  purposes  of   this  title,  any  person  eligible  pursuant  to the provisions of this   chapter to vote by  absentee  ballot  shall  be  eligible  for  absentee   registration and enrollment.d.  In  addition  to  any  other  method  of registering to vote or of   applying for a special federal  ballot,  a  special  federal  voter  may   request  a  voter  registration application or request a special federal   ballot application by facsimile transmission to the board  of  elections   or  pursuant  to the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act   or by electronic mail. When making such a request, the  special  federal   voter  may  designate  a  preference  for  transmission  of  such  voter   registration application and special federal ballot application pursuant   to section 11-203 of this title.e. The special federal ballot  application  shall  allow  the  special   federal  voter  to designate a preference to receive the special federal   ballot pursuant to section 11-203 of this title.f. The  procedures  for  receiving  documents  from  and  transmitting   documents  to  a special federal voter shall, to the extent practicable,   protect  the  security  and  integrity  of  the  special  federal  voter   registration  and special federal ballot application request process and   protect the privacy of the special federal voter, including the  voter's   identity  and other personal data. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit   the information that may be obtained pursuant to section 3-220  of  this   chapter.2.  a.  A  form  of  application  for registration and enrollment as a   special federal voter and for a special federal  ballot  or  a  form  of    application  for a special federal ballot by persons registered pursuant   to this title shall be furnished  by  the  board  of  elections  to  the   applicant  who shall request such form within the time limited therefor.   The  application shall be made and signed by the applicant at the places   thereon provided for such purpose and such  applicant  shall  set  forth   therein  all  of  the  facts required to establish his qualifications to   register and vote under this title.b. The forms for use under this section  shall  be  of  a  distinctive   color  and  substantially  in  the form prescribed by the state board of   elections and shall elicit all the information which may be necessary to   determine eligibility to register and vote pursuant to the provisions of   this title.
