Despite the "broad support" of GOP, this is a horribly flawed proposal that opens the door for systemic mail ballot fraud.
GOP lawmakers as not thinking about what they are doing by using this DL# standard versus well-accepted standard off signature verification. 1/

2/ Let's use simplest example--
Parents of college & adult children who are still registered in GA use their DL numbers, receive their ballots and vote them.
Frequently done now, but caught in signature verification and rejected.
But will be accepted in new law. 😡

3/ People will have DL#s of friends who don't want to vote. They can vote for them now.
Also easy to buy DL#s from illegal sources. Pick a few hundred low propensity voters and get ballots under those names, and return voted ballot with the DL number.

4/ Here's another attractive fraud scheme with their ridiculous DL#, where officials send a live provisional ballot if the DL# is wrong.
Use voter names in the district's ballot you want to target--say a mayor's race. Request ballots in names of city voters and make up a DL#...

5/ and you'll get a provisional ballot with the mayor's race. Give that ballot to a voter who lives outside the city limits who applied for a ballot. He can vote on the mayor race and return the fraudulent ballot in his legitimate envelope.
Wrong style rarely caught.

6/ The schemes that GOP lawmakers have concocted likely with SOS help are ripe for fraud to escalate.
But they claim that they are fighting mail ballot fraud!
Don't be naive.
