Mail only elections would be a thing of the past under a bill approved by the North Dakota House. The legislation would require every county in the state to have at least one in-person voting site.
In response to President Donald Trump’s national emergency COVID-19 declaration in March 2020 Governor Doug Burgum issued an executive order suspending certain election laws in favor of voting absentee…via mail…or drop box.

House Bill 1167 was approved on a 93-zero vote.
