Within 15 business days after any statewide election, the registrar shall update all information in the central voter registration system for all voters in the municipality to reflect any voter registration activity after the incoming voting list was printed for that election and up until the close of the polls on election day. The registrar shall also enter any designations of challenged ballots in the applicable voter records in the central voter registration system.

The clerk shall notify the Secretary of State as soon as this task is completed. [2021, c. 750, §10(AMD); 2021, c. 750, §14(AFF).]
