The rule needs to be amended to provide for expanded data fields in absentee ballot request reports and changed timing of early voting periods for reporting statistics on early voting activity. These changes are prompted by Ch. 2013-57, Laws of Florida, which affected some reporting and file upload requirements relating to early voting and absentee ballot request information, and which became effective January 1, 2014. Further, some of the data fields are being removed from this rule and being put into Rule 1S-2.053.
