Nevada's secretary of state said more young people's mail-in ballots had problems with signatures.Anadolu/Anadolu via Getty ImagesGen Z voters who struggle with cursive could slow the vote count, Nevada's secretary of state said.He said more mail ballots have been rejected because of issues with young voters' signatures.Many schools stopped teaching cursive in 2010, leading to a generation unfamiliar with the style.As more schools stop teaching cursive handwriting, fewer young people have distinct signatures — and that could affect Gen Z voters as they try to cast their votes.Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar said on Tuesday that a relatively high number of mail-in ballots had been rejected in Clark and Washoe counties, two of the battleground state's most populous counties, because of signature matching problems."It's mostly the fact that young people don't have signatures these days," Aguilar told The New York Times.
