§ 293.541. Additional circumstances in which county clerk is required to cancel preregistration or registration; notice; exception to notice requirement if insufficient time exists before election; voting after execution of affidavit of cancellation; separation of ballots

1. The county clerk shall cancel the preregistration of a person or the registration

of a voter if: (a) After consultation with the district attorney, the district attorney determines

that there is probable cause to believe that information in the application to preregister

or register to vote concerning the identity or residence of the person or voter is

fraudulent; (b) The county clerk provides a notice as required pursuant to subsection 2 or executes

an affidavit of cancellation pursuant to subsection 3; and (c) The person or voter fails to present satisfactory proof of identity and residence

pursuant to subsection 2, 4 or 5. 2. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, the county clerk shall notify the

person or voter by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, of a determination

made pursuant to subsection 1. The notice must set forth the grounds for cancellation. Unless the person or voter, within 15 days after the return receipt has been filed

in the office of the county clerk, presents satisfactory proof of identity and residence

to the county clerk, the county clerk shall cancel the person's preregistration or

the voter's registration, as applicable. 3. If insufficient time exists before a pending election to provide the notice required

by subsection 2 to a registered voter, the county clerk shall execute an affidavit

of cancellation and attach a copy of the affidavit of cancellation in the roster. 4. If a voter appears to vote at the election next following the date that an affidavit

of cancellation was executed for the voter pursuant to this section, the voter must

be allowed to vote only if the voter furnishes: (a) Official identification which contains a photograph of the voter, including, without

limitation, a driver's license or other official document; and (b) Satisfactory identification that contains proof of the address at which the voter

actually resides and that address is consistent with the address listed on the roster. 5. If a determination is made pursuant to subsection 1 concerning information in the

registration to vote of a voter and a mail ballot is received from the voter, the

mail ballot must be kept separate from other ballots and must not be counted unless

the voter presents satisfactory proof to the county clerk of identity and residence

before such ballots are counted on election day. 6. For the purposes of this section, a voter registration card does not provide proof

of the: (a) Address at which a person actually resides; or (b) Residence or identity of a person.
