The barcodes on mail ballot envelopes are used by election officials to make elections more efficient and secure.
When scanned by election workers they can confirm that:
• You’re a registered voter
• You submitted your ballot
• A ballot from you hasn’t been received already (to prevent double voting)

Why is there a barcode on my mail ballot envelope? All those lines are actually layers of security. Your election office uses this barcode to verify your voter registration. It also makes sure people can’t vote more than once.
