The local boards shall not more than once a month, if requested to do so by the state and/or city or town chairperson of any political party, or any state or local office holder or declared candidate for public office, furnish without cost and without unreasonable delay to the chairperson, or the chairperson’s accredited representative, and to any state or local office holder or declared candidate for public office so requesting, the names and addresses of all persons who are newly registered to vote in the city or town, the names and addresses of all electors who have transferred to a new voting address, and the names and addresses of all persons whose names have been removed from the voting list or placed in the inactive category. In the event that any list so furnished is declared to be inaccurate by the chairperson of the democratic state committee or the chairperson of the republican state central committee, the state board of elections shall, at its discretion, if requested by either of the chairpersons, appoint a disinterested person to examine the records of the local board for the purpose of determining the accuracy of the list.
