On July 16, a U.S. District Court heard a case challenging the practice of New Hampshire election officials, relative to absentee mail ballots. The practice is to discard such ballots, without telling the voter, if the official believes the voter’s signature on the ballot envelope doesn’t match the voter’s signature on the voter registration application. The case is Saucedo v New Hampshire Secretary of State, 1:17cv-183. See this story.

The case is before U.S. District Court Judge Landya McCafferty, an Obama appointee.
