[PL 2005, c. 453, §20 (AMD).]

3.  Marriage; notice of inquiry.  If the registrar determines that a voter has married, the registrar may not for that reason alone cancel a voter's registration in the central voter registration system. The registrar may send a notice inquiring whether, as a result of marriage, that voter's name or address has been changed. Nothing in this subsection relieves a voter of the duty to give the registrar written notice of a change of name or address in accordance with section 129.
