curing

In addition to election officials reaching out to affected voters, political parties have also gathered armies of volunteers to reach out to voters — especially those who are likely supporters of their candidates and causes — for ballot curing.

“We need to be certain that Republicans are present for every instance of ballot counting and curing to ensure a clean and honest process.”

Through the increasingly common process known as “ballot curing,” campaigns are contacting voters whose ballots were not counted because of a technicality and giving them a chance to correct their mistakes.

“People say it all the time, but you can actually see it with ballot curing in these close contests.”

Political campaigns are seizing on the opportunity to fundraise, sending pleas to their supporters for money to help the ballot curing process.
