Can I collect passport numbers from participants in Alabama? What are the requirements?

Collecting Passport Numbers from Participants in Alabama

Based on the information provided in the context documents, it is not clear why you would need to collect passport numbers from participants in Alabama. However, if you are referring to collecting passport numbers for voter identification purposes, the Alabama photo voter identification card is one of the acceptable forms of identification for voting in Alabama [1.1]. The Alabama photo voter identification card contains a digital color photograph of the applicant, full legal name, address as reflected in the person’s voter registration record, date of birth, eye color, gender, height, weight, and date identification card was issued [1.1]. To obtain an Alabama photo voter identification card, registered Alabama electors can apply to the Secretary of State, and no fee shall be charged or collected for the application for or issuance of an Alabama photo voter identification card [1.1].

If you are not referring to voter identification, please provide more context so that I can better assist you.

Requirements for Requesting an Overseas Absentee Ballot

If you are requesting passport numbers for overseas absentee voting purposes, the Alabama Electronic Overseas Voting Advisory Committee has established requirements for requesting an overseas absentee ballot [2.1]. In determining the requirements for a request for an overseas absentee ballot, the committee and the Secretary of State shall consider including the following information:

  1. The name of the voter requesting the ballot.
  2. The legal Alabama residence of the voter.
  3. The date of birth of the voter.
  4. One of the following:
  5. An APO/FPO or other deliverable overseas address, if the overseas voter requests that the ballot be mailed.
  6. A facsimile machine number where return information shall be received, if the overseas voter requests that the ballot be faxed. If the voter requests facsimile transmission, his or her signature is also required.
  7. An electronic mail address, if the overseas voter requests that the ballot be transmitted pursuant to electronic mail.
  8. A signed application for an electronic ballot if the overseas voter requests that the ballot be transmitted or accessed by other secure electronic means approved by rule of the Secretary of State.
