That’s really weird. In my state, the only signature that matters is the voter’s, and the voter can track their ballot though every stage of the vote counting process. I forget what it looks like exactly, but I think there’s an option for someone to sign if they’re helping the person fill it out.
I personally drop mine off at the ballot box because I feel like it’s safer (and I don’t want to pay for a stamp).
Requiring a notary to sign would probably be considered illegal voter suppression and potentially considered a “poll tax” (because you’d essentially need a bank account to get access to a notary).
Here I’d have to insert between step 2 and 3 “get it notarized”, here ballots don’t count if mailed in without a notary.

Guessing they would state that if you had no access to a notary, voting in person is still allowed (with a valid state issued photo id)
You have to pay someone for your ballot to be valid? Sounds pretty unconstitutional.
Voting in person has no such restriction. Though now you need a valid state instead 6 photo id…
