Organize non-partisan certified individuals to deliver absentee ballots to legally designated places
Help voters organize to hand deliver absentee ballots for the Presidential election to places designated by Congress or State Governors or Mayors for the counting of absentee ballots. Encourage the formation of certified non-partizan citizen carriers to collect the ballots of those who cannot go in person to vote. We do not need to rely on the Post Office alone to do this job. Trump is sabotaging the Post Office but the people can do it. Make it legal to have certified individuals bring in your sealed absentee ballot to polling place, designated boxes, and directly to local Boards of Election for counting just as if they had come to them via the Postal Service.
Why is this important?
Every citizen has the right to vote. With the Republicans sabotaging the Post Office and casting doubt upon its ability to deliver the absentee ballots, we citizens should be able to rely on certified individuals to pick up the ballots of those who cannot vote in person and bring in the votes. In states like Alabama that are closing down polls, using intimidation on voters who show up, and making citizens travel for long distances to get to the polls this can be the answer. We must mobilize quickly. Lets all help to get in the vote!!! We can do this! We can protect our democracy with a new American citizen Pony Express!
How it will be delivered
( for the reviewers of my petition:I started this petition thinking Move On. org would promote it and it could gain national attention? I need more votes then just the people I know.) Once there are more signatures I would email them to Nancy Pelosi and my senators and congresspeople. I would also be happy to deliver the signatures in person to Representative Nadler, Senator Schumer, and Governor Cuomo's office in NYC or Washington D.C. This is a very timely issue and we must move fast.
