You see a mail ballot, but we see layers of security. Here are some of the steps we take to make sure voting by mail is secure.

We only send mail ballots to qualified voters. On the back end, we verify your identity to make sure you’re eligible.

We check that your signature matches the one we have on file. Both humans and software are used to catch anything suspicious. It rarely happens, but any signs of fraud are sent to law enforcement.

We confirm that your ID number matches your voter registration. In some states, you submit your driver’s license number or voter registration card for further verification.

We log your voter activity in our voting system. If someone were to try voting more than once, whether in person or by mail, we only count the first ballot we received.
