Georgia has partnered with an absentee ballot tracking service backed by Democracy Works, an organization that is funded by left-wing groups including Democracy Fund.
Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced Monday that Georgia “has partnered with Enhanced Voting to bring the Ballot Scout tool to voters across the state.” The platform is said to “provide Georgia voters with real-time updates on their absentee by mail ballots, enhancing transparency and confidence in the voting process.”
“Ballot Scout represents a major advancement in how we manage and track ballots,” Raffensperger said in a statement. “With this tool, voters in Georgia can stay informed and confident about their voting experience, knowing where their ballot is throughout the entire process.”
Voters who use Ballot Scout and send in an absentee ballot will be notified from the platform “via text, email, or voice call” as to when their ballot is marked “as issued” and when it is received by county election officials after the voter has cast his vote, according to the press release.
Enhanced Voting celebrated the partnership in a post on X, claiming they are “committed to fostering transparency and security in the voting process,” and that Ballot Scout would offer “reassurance and certainty” to voters.
But Ballot Scout is a project of TurboVote, according to Democracy Fund. TurboVote is a subsidiary of Democracy Works, which “provides grants to organizations that prioritize voter registration and mobilization within communities likely to vote for left-of-center candidates and policies,” according to Influence Watch.
