signatures aren’t immediately validated; the identification you provide is just ticking boxes. verification happens after the signing period, when the signatures are sent to their respective states to confirm and tally.
So there is no verification going on when I provide my passport number? Like, it doesn’t check for valid inputs, meaning e.g. the format has to fit the general format for passport numbers of my country?
There should be a better system in place to prevent voting fraud.

i mean there’s basic input validation yeah, but the number of unique valid signatures isn’t known for all countries till after the collection period.
I see, thank you.
