Two lawmakers have proposed expanding mail-in voting to address coronavirus concerns. But that would inject new risks into an already unsettled election.
If a discrepancy between the two signatures is found, some states notify the voter in an attempt to reconcile the issue within an allotted time frame, but not all of them do this. If the voter’s eligibility can’t be verified, that person’s ballot isn’t counted. Some states require not only the voter’s signature on the envelope, but also a witness signature or a photocopy of the voter’s ID.
These issues aren’t problematic when the number of ballots to be processed is small — out of Foote’s tiny county of 10,000 registered voters, her staff and canvassing board generally have to recreate only about 30 ballots in this way. But, she said, “we’ll have over 80 percent turnout in the general election. If all of those ballots had to be duplicated, I’m not sure how many days that would take.
Earley said his county is in the first stages of developing contingency plans and is looking at a number of options, including staggering voters at precincts over many days. Michigan counties use 15,000 people to process absentee ballots across the state, she said, but a centralized system might require only about 200.
