Existing law defines a vote by mail voter as a voter who casts a ballot in any way other than at a polling place and defines a military or overseas voter as an elector who is absent from the county in which the voter is otherwise eligible to vote because the person is a member of the military or a specified federal government agency, a spouse or dependent of such a person, or a citizen living outside of the territorial limits of the United States.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
(a)Vote by mail voter means any a voter casting who casts a ballot in any way other than at the a polling place.

(2)A citizen of the United States living outside of the territorial limits of the United States or the District of Columbia.
