BallotBuddy

BallotBuddy is a mobile + web app that helps voters request, complete, and track absentee/remote ballots with fewer mistakes. It gives state-specific checklists (ID rules, witness/notary needs, envelope requirements), deadline reminders, and step-by-step guidance for sealing/signing correctly. The core value is tracking: it pulls official ballot status where states expose it, and where they don’t, it guides users to the right portals and logs proof (screenshots, timestamps, mailing receipt) so voters can act fast if something goes wrong. It also flags common rejection reasons and prompts users to fix issues early (missing signature, mismatched address, late postmark). This is not online voting; it’s a compliance and tracking layer that reduces preventable ballot rejection and “did my vote count?” anxiety.
