6 AAC 25.145 - Tracking political affiliation on voter registration and absentee ballot application forms

(a) The director will track the political affiliation selected by voters on forms used by the division to register a voter.

(b) Forms used to register a voter will be reviewed at least once a year. If at the time of the review, a group has applied for recognized political party status or a group has obtained recognized political party status, the group's name will be printed on the form. If a political party no longer qualifies as a recognized political party as defined in AS 15.80.010 when the forms are reprinted, the party's name will be removed from the form at the time of the review unless the items required in 6 AAC 25.140(b) are submitted.

(c) A political group that no longer qualifies as a recognized political party will be notified by mail, at the address on file with the division, that the group's name will be removed from the voter registration form.

(d) Updated forms will not be finalized or printed in the 10 days following notification that the group does not qualify as a recognized political party to allow time for the political group to submit the items required in 6 AAC 25.140(b).

(e) The name of a political group no longer qualifying as a recognized political party will be added to the list of political groups as specified in (b) of this section and the tracking process will continue if the group has complied with 6 AAC 25.140 within 10 days following notification that the group no longer qualifies as a recognized political party.

(f) The director may suspend the tracking process between June 1 and November 30 of an election year.
