evidence: After you submit an absentee ballot request form, an absentee ballot will be mailed to you. Mark your absentee ballot in the presence of two witnesses (or one notary public). The witnesses should NOT violate your privacy (i.e., watch your voting choices) while you vote. [...] North Carolina allows voters to "cure" or fix some issues with their absentee ballot so that they will still count. The Board of Elections will contact you to cure errors that involve signature issues or failing to correctly attach a copy of their ID or the ID exception form. You will not have the opportunity to cure issues related to the two required witness signatures (or notary public) or if your envelope was unsealed when it arrived at the Board of Elections. Voters with ballots with these types of issues will be notified that their absentee ballot did not count. If time allows, they can vote a new absentee ballot or vote in person instead. Any North Carolina registered voter may request and receive a mail-in "absentee" ballot. No special circumstance is needed.
