**Absentee ballot signature match**

The State of Georgia strengthened signature match this year. Elections officials received GBI signature match training, requiring a confirmed match **twice** before a ballot is cast. Second, we created an online portal for absentee ballots, which checked/confirmed the voters driver’s license.

In this state, voters cast their ballots in secret so that no political party or candidate can ever intimidate nor threaten a voter into changing his… or her vote.
