(a) Within ninety (90) days of the certification of the returns of any general election or a runoff election subsequent thereto, the Commission shall cancel the registration of any person who failed to vote in the general election pursuant to § 3121(f). Prior to the cancellation of registration for any voter who has failed to vote in two (2) consecutive general elections, the Commission shall first notify by mail its intention to such voter, and publish in a newspaper of general circulation a list of individuals whose registration will be cancelled at least thirty (30) days prior to cancellation. The registration of a person shall not be considered a person who failed to vote who mailed an absentee ballot that was postmarked on or before the general election, but whose ballot was received by the Commission after the tenth (10th) day after a general election; ora person who votes in a general election, but who fails to vote in any runoff election held subsequent thereto; or a person who failed to vote in the general election, but did vote in a runoff election held subsequent to such general election.

(b) The Commission shall notify by mail each person whose registration is cancelled of that fact, and that the person is no longer eligible to vote until that person again has registered as provided in this Title. The Commission shall establish by rule a procedure for a person who believes that that person’s registration has been cancelled erroneously to challenge such cancellation.
