Ballot Curing
Voters may receive calls, texts, and emails about any issues with their Ballot Affidavit Envelope, including their signature. Our office will use the numbers, addresses and emails located in your voter registration record to contact you. If you are signed up for alerts you may receive text or emails to those numbers as well. For ballots to be tabulated, we must have a verified signature each election cycle.

Our office verifies the signature on the Ballot Affidavit Envelope by comparing it to signatures in your official Voter Registration record, including past Affidavit signatures.
If the signature can’t be verified, you will be contacted using the information we have on file:
We will ask you to call (520) 724-4330 to verify that you did vote your ballot and signed your Affidavit.
- Multiple phone calls and text messages
- Mailed letters
- As the Ballot Curing deadline nears, our team also may contact other household members

- We’ll also send a new Voter Registration form so you can update your signature
