Voting Access Programs
Efforts to continue expanding voting rights to all communities and increase access to the polls generally address either the registration process or the method of casting a ballot.
Reducing the barriers to registration through provisions for young people, online systems and same-day registration increases the total pool of potential voters. Allowing voters to cast their ballot at the time and location of their choosing in turn increases the total turnout in an election.
Together, these programs are a vital part of growing the electorate and making elections as inclusive as possible.
