Lawsuit filed over Arkansas absentee ballot rejections

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - A lawsuit filed Tuesday asks a federal judge to require Arkansas election officials to give absentee voters a chance to correct their ballots before they're rejected due to signature issues.

The League of Women Voters of Arkansas argues in the lawsuit that Arkansas law regarding absentee ballots disenfranchises voters because they're not given any notice or chance to cure any deficiencies.

State law requires election officials to reject absentee ballots that are missing a voter's signature or if there's a mismatch between the signature, address or date of birth on the absentee ballot and the application materials.

According to the lawsuit, Arkansas already provides notification to absentee voters if there are photo ID issues with their ballots.

How hard is it to grab your drivers license and sign as you did at the DMV. People are such idiots. I voted mail in in Florida during the primary and it couldn’t be any easier. Not only that, but the board of elections tracks the ballot from receiving to completion. I don’t know why it’s so hard for some people and states as well.

Here we go now!

Nothing random about any of this.

Left wing DNC related court cases, both state and federal, popping up all over America, 40 days to “0”.

All recent rulings designed to create voting chaos, blow up voting laws, and nearly all in favor of DNC.

And the anti-American DNC left are just getting started.

By design, anyone who steps in their way will be violating their “voting rights” and “civil rights”, and pegged as racist.

They have no obligation to do this. They send out the forms and you must follow simple - very simple - rules. If you don’t, your form is rejected. The state tax payers can not be financially on the line for paying to hold voters’ hands.

What constitutional grounds would the judge use to force such nonsense?

NC just extended absentee voting to allow ballots post marked by Nov 3rd to be counted up to 9 days after Nov 3rd.

So if there is a problem with these ballots received by Nov 9th and post marked by Nov 3rd, so they then have to give voters another chance to cure their ballot and if so how many days to do that? More delay in getting actual counts to determine President win.

The only reason I can figure out for why the Libs are advertising what they are going to do is to have a dirty trick up their sleeves for the inevitable response & legal action against the fraudulent ballots.

The first thing that comes to mind is impeachment, of course, assuming they think they can hold the House and take the Senate.

If you make a mistake using the voting machine at the regular voting poll site, can you pull the lever/push the button, and then come out telling the assistance you want to “correct your vote”??? No.

Bad signature? Too bad. All you get is a “that’s too bad, but there are no ‘do overs’ “.

Trying so hard to make voting so easy and convenient is helping to make voters who take voting not as a personal responsibility but merely a right without any personal responsibility.

Maybe their goal wasn’t to have a smooth election.

It is clear, this is calculated US election chaos and destruction being carried out by the anti-American socialist DNC.
