Heck yeah! And I can say that the notarization process is legit. In Missouri, when you vote in-person, you have to show a photo ID and sign a sort of log book before you get your ballot. When you vote absentee (and by mail now, with this ruling), you get your ballot and fill it out, but it won't be counted unless it's notarized. You notarize it by going to the courthouse and showing an official your photo ID and signing the same kind of log book. The voter certification is just as secure. However, ballots could still be "lost" in the mail, so I would still recommend turning in your absentee ballot in person if you are voting absentee.
