Arizonans: Check to make sure your dropped off or mailed ballot will be counted!




Go to this site to check your status. First I used the top of the page to enter my info. It said my ballot had been validated. I was a bit confused as not clear if it had been signature validated and accepted. Then I saw the buttons at the bottom of the page where you could select Maricopa or Pima County. When I used the Pima County button it gave clearer status of each step and indeed
my signature was verified and the ballot accepted. I have terrible handwriting in part due to multiple wrist/arm surgeries so I’m always concerned about getting my signature verified.

Check yours here, better safe than sorry. I suspect all counties in other states offer a similar service.

I used the Az button first and said accepted. Then I used the Pima County and it specified: signature verified and ballot accepted 🙂

if you don't see it going through by Monday, go vote in person on Tuesday.

dang it! I knew I should have dropped it at the box in Benson instead of the mail. I try to throw as much business to my little Post Office as I can but with DeJoy and all the repukes in this county...arrggghhh!

at least a few more Dem votes. I signed up to count ballots if those idiots are going to go through with the hand count.

my signature has been verified. I don't know what I did wrong at the web site but I had to call the phone number that is given. I did ask when my ballot would be counted and he told me it would be counted on election day.

Weird on when counting begins for mail in votes:


Two sites that say counting starts early but results not announced:

Q: When will my early ballot be counted?
Election officials will start counting early ballots - including mail-in ballots - 14 days before the election. This is from https://www.azfamily.com/page/faqs-everything-you-need-to-know-about-mail-in-voting-in-arizona/

On this site scroll down to AZ

posted as well. I guess part of me wanted human verification. Does that make sense? The important part is that they have my ballot and it will be counted.

Thank you for the links I am going to check the sites.
