Enhance Ballot Access in Pennsylvania by Authorizing Optional Vote By Mail

Demanding work schedules, responsibilities for the care of children and other family members, transportation issues and other life circumstances make it difficult for many eligible voters to cast their ballots.

Greater flexibility when casting a vote is a common sense option to boost turnout and make our elections more representative of what the people actually want.

Voting by mail makes the election process more convenient, more secure, and more equitable.

Why is this important?

In 30 States and the District of Columbia, voters have the option of no excuse absentee voting, also referred to as optional vote by mail. To date, Pennsylvania is NOT one of those states. But you have the power to change this by signing this petition.

This petition to members of the Pennsylvania state legislature urges our elected officials to enact legislation that would authorize optional vote by mail.

Sign the Petition to clearly convey that our voting system should be set up so that every eligible citizen has a fair chance to vote without imposing artificial obstacles to make it difficult.
