[NFBWATlk] Alarming Voting News

Hello,

My eyesight has changed since I signed my state ID, so I was concerned that my signature on my ballot would not match my signature from a few years back. The person I talked to at the King County Board of Elections office said I could still sign my ballot and then have it signed by two witnesses, and that would help mitigate the contingency of mismatched signatures. I'll find out in a few days whether my ballot was accepted.

Hi Listers,

I have some disturbing news. I had my ballot in the drop box near my apartment last Sunday, as did the rest of my family. On Thursday, my daughters went on line to the King County elections web site, and checked to make sure all our votes were in. They found that all of our ballots were in, but only mine was *rejected. My signature didn’t match the signature they have on file for me. The notice said the county elections folks would reach out to me, but that I could fill out the signature form, and either send it in or upload and email it. Since I haven’t heard from them, that’s what I’m going to do today. 

I strongly recommend that you the listers here, make sure to check the election web site, or call the telephone number in your area that will get you the information about tracking your ballot. I’m so glad my daughters checked. I will somehow get my vote counted, even if I have to ultimately go to an election center and use a machine.

Please remember to vote!
