(1) Election administrators shall, in every odd-numbered year:

(a) compare the entire list of registered electors against the national change of address files and provide appropriate confirmation notice to those individuals whose addresses have apparently changed;

(b) mail a nonforwardable, first-class, "return if undeliverable--address correction requested" notice to all registered electors of each jurisdiction to confirm their addresses and provide the appropriate confirmation notice to those individuals who return the notices;

(c) mail a targeted mailing to electors who failed to vote in the preceding federal general election by:

(i) sending the list of nonvoters a nonforwardable notice, followed by the appropriate forwardable confirmation notice to those electors who appear to have moved from their addresses of record;

(ii) comparing the list of nonvoters against the national change of address files, followed by the appropriate confirmation notices to those electors who appear to have moved from their addresses of record;

(iii) sending forwardable confirmation notices; or

(iv) making a door-to-door canvass.

(2) Any notices returned to the election administrator after using the procedures provided in (1) must be followed by an appropriate confirmation notice that is a forwardable, first-class, postage-paid, self-addressed, return notice. If the elector fails to respond within 30 days of the confirmation notice, the election administrator shall move the elector to the inactive list.

(3) A procedure used by an election administrator pursuant to this rule must be completed at least 90 days before a primary or general election for federal office.

(4) The election administrator shall cancel the registration of an elector if the elector fails to respond to certain confirmation mailings, is placed on the inactive list, and fails to vote in two consecutive federal general elections after being placed on the inactive list.

(5) The name of an elector must be moved by an election administrator from the inactive list to the active list of a county if an elector meets the requirements for registration provided in this chapter and appears in order to vote or votes by absentee ballot in any election.

(6) An elector reactivated pursuant to (5) is a legally registered elector for purposes of the election in which the elector voted.
