Years ago she was trailing in the vote count and vote curing turned the election for her. They got a list of all the voters with issues and went to each house - and stated they were doing a post election survey. They asked the voters who they had voted for - if they voted for her opponent they thanked them for the info and left, if they voted for Murray they got the voter to the polling station to fix their vote. This occurred weeks after the election. Apparently there were a lot more thank you for your time than there were come with me responses. (So in reality she got fewer votes but won because of this practice).

Vote curing is “supposed “ to be if a mail in is missing a signature or something the voter has an opportunity to verify his or her identity, come in, and fix their ballot after being verified. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Whatever happened with Patty Murray is certainly not the norm.
