If a mailed ballot is transmitted to a federal qualified elector via secured transmission, the county clerk shall note in the ballot register the voter's registration address, that the ballot was delivered to the voter electronically and the date on which it was sent, but shall not disclose the voter's electronic-mail address. C. A federal qualified elector who provides an electronic-mail address may request that the voter's application for a military-overseas ballot be considered a standing request for secured electronic delivery of a ballot for all elections in the election cycle. The county clerk shall provide a military-overseas ballot to a voter who makes a standing request for each election to which the request is applicable as an automatic application for a military-overseas ballot.
