A good question, probably not. I've tried to find the answer online and it depends on errors and what your state does about them. Some states contact you if your signature doesn't match, but this time, who knows? They'll be snowed under. This time I was super careful going through the instructions and put it into the hands of the Town Clerk myself (we're in a rural VT village). I didn't check my signature although mine is pretty consistent.
I did same in a different Vermont village. And 2 days later went onto my page in the vermont.gov website to verify that my ballot had been officially received (date and time). Would that all states did things in such a transparent way. I have volunteered as a poll helper, though I suspect so many Vermonters will have voted by mail-in/drop-off, the polls are likely to be pretty quiet on election day. What some states are doing to undermine the ability to vote is frightening, though so far challenges through the courts seem to be helping to keep things straight.
A paranoid question I've been pondering: Does an "accepted" mail-in ballot assure that it will be actually counted?
