Arizona voters are being encouraged to verify their ballot status online, with an election attorney urging them to ensure their votes have been counted. This call to action comes as several races in the state, including Kari Lake’s Senate race and some House contests, remain undecided, despite most other states having completed their vote tallies.

Voters in Maricopa County can check their ballot status at beballotready.vote, while those elsewhere in Arizona can use my.arizona.vote. It’s important to note that Maricopa County has yet to count early ballots received from Wednesday to Tuesday of the previous week.

The attorney, Jen Wright, emphasizes the need for patience and persistence in tracking ballots until they are officially counted. This advice extends to those who voted early or cast provisional ballots.

The situation highlights the ongoing challenges in Arizona’s vote-counting process, particularly in Maricopa County, which has faced scrutiny in recent elections. Voters are being asked to take an active role in ensuring their votes are properly recorded and counted.

By encouraging voters to verify their ballot status, election officials hope to maintain transparency and address any potential issues that may arise during the counting process. This proactive approach aims to bolster confidence in the electoral system and ensure that every valid vote is accounted for in these crucial races.
