(c) Verify the signature of the voter in the manner set forth in NRS 293.277 . (d) Verify that the voter has not already voted in that county in the current election. 2. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 293.57691 , if the signature of the voter does not match, the voter must be identified by: (a) Answering questions from the election board officer covering the personal data

which is reported on the application to register to vote; (b) Providing the election board officer, orally or in writing, with other personal

data which verifies the identity of the voter; or (c) Providing the election board officer with proof of identification as described

in NRS 293.277 other than the voter registration card issued to the voter. 3. If the signature of the voter has changed in comparison to the signature on the

application to register to vote, the voter must update his or her signature on a form

prescribed by the Secretary of State. 4. The county clerk shall prescribe a procedure, approved by the Secretary of State,

to verify that the voter has not already voted in that county in the current election. 5. The roster for early voting or a signature card, as applicable, must contain: (a) The voter's name, the address where he or she is registered to vote, his or her

voter identification number and a place for the voter's signature; (b) The voter's precinct or voting district number, if that information is available;

and (c) The date of voting early in person. 6. When a voter is entitled to cast a ballot and has identified himself or herself

to the satisfaction of the election board officer, the voter is entitled to receive

the appropriate ballot or ballots, but only for his or her own use at the polling

place for early voting. 7. If the ballot is voted on a mechanical recording device which directly records

the votes electronically, the election board officer shall: (a) Prepare the mechanical recording device for the voter; (b) Ensure that the voter's precinct or voting district, if that information is available,

voting receipts; and (c) Allow the voter to cast a vote. 8. A voter applying to vote early by personal appearance may be challenged pursuant

to NRS 293.303 . 9. For the purposes of subsection 2, the personal data of a voter may include his
