Signature ‘Cures’ May Decide Nevada Races

November 10, 2022 at 8:56 pm EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“With razor-thin margins separating candidates in Nevada’s top races, a growing number of advocacy groups are focusing on thousands of challenged ballots still requiring signature cures that could become the difference between victory and defeat for candidates across the state,” the Nevada Independent reports.

“Mail ballots submitted to county election officials that have signatures that do not match those on file require ‘cures,’ a process by which county election workers verify the identity of the voter in question before having their ballot counted.”

The Hill: Nevada Senate race on knife’s edge as majority hangs in the balance.
