    If the poll worker denied you your ballot for whatever reason you can still demand a provisional ballot, by law. Curing is the term for submitting/making the ballot official. So fighting against it is part of the rights effort to disenfranchise/suppress voters.

      It’s not quite that. They’re trying to track down Republican voters who might need to cure their ballots, and try to push them to show up and cast a provisional ballot. It’s one of the least efficient ways to turn money into votes that exists.
