  const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.ethereum);
  const signer = provider.getSigner();

  async function connectToContract() {
    await window.ethereum.request({ method: "eth_requestAccounts" });
  }

  const initializeEthers = async () => {
    // ethers connection for the smart contract
    const contract = new ethers.Contract(
      contractAddress,

    );

    // Get the list of all issues
    const allIssues = await contract.getAllIssues();

        contractAddress,
        BallotContract.abi,
        provider.getSigner()
      );

      await contract.createIssue(issueName, 24);
      setIssueName("");
      // After creating the issue, update the list of issues by fetching again from the contract
      const allIssues = await contract.getAllIssues();

The error message suggests that you are not correctly connecting the contract with the desired signer. Make sure you are correctly fetching the desired signer to call this contract.

Without the signer the contract can't specify the account or wallet that will be used to sign the transaction and pay for the gas fees when invoking the contract function.
