Some voters must cure their ballots by 5pm on Friday, Nov. 8th. If you haven been informed that you need to cure your ballot, check out this information.
ALT Every Georgia voter’s ballot deserves to be counted. You may have been informed that you need to cure your ballot. Your absentee ballot can be rejected for a number of reasons or you may have voted by provisional paper ballot. If you were notified that your ballot was defective or asked to vote a provisional ballot at the polls, you have three days from Election Day to cure the ballot. The required steps to cure a ballot vary depending on the cause and should have been made clear with the notification of the requirement to cure. Steps could include bringing a correct form of ID or proof of residency to the election office. For any questions, please contact your local election office.
