Ballot Curing

[lilac05]

Please remind your people that Ballot Curing is happening right now. Check to make sure your ballot was counted. Answer the phone if you get a call from someone you don’t know…a lot of people doing the curing are having a really hard time getting people to answer their phones.

Will they leave a voicemail if they are able to?

I’m not sure about that. I just saw posts from people doing the curing begging people to please answer their phones.

There are also volunteer options to help with curing via phone and text, if anyone is interested. I don’t have a link right now, though.

Is this just mail-in ballot related or do they do curing on in person ones too?

I haven’t heard anything about in person ballots needing to be cured. I think it’s just mail-in.

Do people check voicemails from numbers they don't know? I feel like voicemail is a generational thing. A boomer might listen, but I don't leave voicemails for anyone under 55. (personal voicemails. not on professional phone lines. I assume people do their jobs.)

I always check my voicemails. I rarely answer my phone but if people go to the trouble of leaving a message I listen.

My cell phone does voice to text so I can read the voicemail. It doesn’t always translate perfectly but enough to see if it’s important and listen/ call back or if it’s not/ delete. I was just curious. I don’t answer my phone to any strange numbers but I always check my if they leave a message.

I signed up for text banking for the thousands of Nevada ballots needing curing through NV Dems. The first event was cancelled. The second I tried to join, but got an email that told me the status had been updated without any other information and no way to get into the event that I could see. I felt really really old. I do not want to make phone calls, but I should probably try again to help.

Good reminder! My ballot and H’s still show as not received (even though I put it in a secure drop box) and thus not counted.
