Action opportunity: Chase and Cure

[chestnut_pod]

Action Network has a body called the Ballot Chase & Cure Team, which, basically, contacts voters whose mail-in ballots have been rejected either via phone or text (that's the chase) to inform them of what’s needed to fix it (that's the cure), and setting up appointments for them to meet with local campaign volunteers to sign affidavits. The timing expectation is that the Chase & Cure phase will start shortly after people start mailing in their ballot in October.

Personally, this feels less nerve-wracking to me than anything having to do with cold calling, since you are calling for a specific reason with a specific fix, and it will be very directly impactful (one hopes).

How do I find out if my ballot was rejected?

In some states, the ballot tracking system will tell you. I'm not sure where to go if it doesn't, but it's a place to start:

This CNN page (here) has links to the various state systems that will let you track your ballot.

If that doesn't help, I'd suggest googling "$state ballot cure process" and see what comes up.
