I am proud that my legal team and I are leading the fight in this case against the Republican Party’s effort to throw out lawful ballots. Everyone needs to recognize this as the next step in the GOP plan to ban mail-in voting entirely and to eventually target early voting as well.

Signature matching is junk science that has been used to disenfranchise lawful voters. It’s shameful that Democratic controlled states still use this. Voters should not have to spend time correcting the states mistakes or risk having their legal votes tossed out.
Maybe you forgot to sign your ballot, or your signature didn't quite match the one on record. If you received a signature challenge letter and have questions, we have a web page for that.
