Summary: 

Ballot harvesting isn’t an official legal term, but it generally refers to someone collecting absentee ballots on behalf of others and then submitting them. Some voting rights experts see the term "ballot harvesting" as pejorative and prefer the term "ballot collection." Many states allow at least certain individuals to collect some ballots on behalf of others.

The RNC also opposes a bill supported by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that says states "may not put any limit on how many voted and sealed absentee ballots any designated person can return."
