In Msg #625241 there was a discussion of how to notarize a ballot.
On the New York Times website today, there was an Opinion story about what verification requirements states put on mail-in ballots. There was a map summarizing the requirement for each state. The ones that require states to be notarized are
Alabama Arkansas Louisiana Mississippi North Carolina Oklahoma South Carolina Wisconsin
From the discussion in this forum, we learned that Minnesota suspended its requirement that ballots be witnessed or notarized, unless the voter was not registered and was applying for registration at the same time as sending in a ballot. The map in the Times does not get into such fine points, it just shows Minnesota as just checking the signature on the envelope with the signature on file. |
