This is where I say that in Washington state, which has done all-mail voting since 2011, ballots have not been thrown in creeks during that time. #waleg #waelex #VoteByMail #Debate2020

WA state also has processes in place to make sure that in the rare situation where 2 ballots are sent to one person, only one is counted. Washington& #39;s Republican Secretary of State, @KimWyman12, said all-mail voting has not led to a spike in voter fraud. #MailInVoting #Debate2020

That above screenshot in my last tweet was from an @npr story. But here are the voter security measures in place with WA& #39;s all-mail voting that helps keep it secure. Signature matching is a big one.

Your ballot is safe in a drop box in WA. Here's why

Serial numbers, seals, logs and GPS tracking are some of the tools used to protect the ballots placed in drop boxes each election cycle.

WA has a ballot tracking system where voters can log on + check progress of their ballot to see if it& #39;s been counted. This is an accountability feature that is very important, elections officials say. If ballots were going in rivers, voters would know. #Debates2020 https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> #MailInVoting

That said, if WA voters do notice irregularities, they can report them to us here. We& #39;re partnering with @ProPublica& #39;s @Electionland to investigate any problems people have voting. Our 1st story resulting from this partnership publishes tomorrow. https://crosscut.com/politics/2020/09/having-problems-voting-wa-weve-got-tipline">https://crosscut.com/politics/... #waelex

I should note, again, that our story we are publishing tomorrow based on voter tips DOES NOT INVOLVE BALLOTS THROWN IN CREEKS. Or any bodies of water. #waleg #MailInVoting
