Section 657:20 Procedure by Voter.

After marking his ballot, an armed services voter or a federal overseas citizen voter shall seal the same in the affidavit envelope. If he is a registered voter, he shall execute the appropriate affidavit and return the ballot as hereinafter provided. If the voter is not registered in the town in which he desires to vote, he shall execute the appropriate affidavit. If the armed services voter or federal overseas citizen voter, because of blindness or other physical disability, is unable to mark his ballot, an official empowered to administer oaths may assist him to mark his ballot as directed by the voter. The official shall then certify on the outside thereof that it was marked with his assistance and shall thereafter give no information regarding the same. Having executed the affidavit, the voter shall enclose and seal said envelope in the return envelope. He shall then endorse thereon his name, address and voting place and shall mail the envelope or personally deliver it to the city or town clerk from whom it was sent.
