"(5) At the said Special Election, any person who is entitled to vote in the annual town election if it were held on that day, shall be entitled to one vote. For purposes of this section, 'entitled to vote' shall include 'registered to vote' and a person may register at the Town office during regular business hours on any day or at other times that the Town Council may establish. Absentee balloting shall not be applicable to the Special Election scheduled for April 27, 2002, because of the insufficient time between enactment of this amendment and that scheduled Special Election."
