*** New law regarding emailed and faxed ABBM
Section 84.007(b-1) provides that if an ABBM is faxed or emailed, then the applicant MUST submit the ORIGINAL APPLICATION BY MAIL to the early voting clerk so that the early voting clerk receives the original no later than the 4th business day after receiving the emailed or faxed ABBM.
If the early voting clerk DOES NOT receive the original ABBM by that 4th business day deadline, then the emailed or faxed ABBM will be considered incomplete.
