No signature verification was performed on absentee-by-mail ballots in the 2020 election, according to sworn testimony and affidavits cited in online discussions and media reports.
Georgia law requires election officials to verify voter signatures on absentee ballot envelopes by comparing them with registration records, but Fulton County did not perform this step.
The county also failed to use its electronic signature verification equipment, and no records were created for 148,000 mail-in ballot outer envelope signatures.
These issues were raised during a December 9, 2025, State Election Board meeting, where Fulton County attorney Ann Brumbaugh acknowledged violations of election rules, though she did not specifically confirm the absence of signature verification—focusing instead on unsigned tabulator tapes.
While Fulton County admitted to various procedural violations, including 315,000 early votes certified without poll worker signatures on tabulator tapes, the specific admission of skipping signature review on mail ballot envelopes comes from affidavits and third-party reports rather than a formal court admission. The State Election Board has referred the matter to the Georgia Attorney General for potential enforcement.
