Anfang dieser Woche ver\u00f6ffentlichte der Gemeinsame Ausschuss f\u00fcr Wahlrecht ein zaghaftes und entt\u00e4uschendes Wahlreformpaket. H.3647<\/a> implementiert Online-W\u00e4hlerregistrierung<\/a> und einige Vorzeitige Stimmabgabe<\/a>. Auff\u00e4llig sind die fehlenden Bestimmungen, die Pr\u00fcfungen nach den Wahlen<\/a> Und Voranmeldung f\u00fcr 16-J\u00e4hrige<\/a>, zwei Reformen, die 2011-2012 vom gesamten Repr\u00e4sentantenhaus verabschiedet wurden, sowie Registrierung am Wahltag<\/a>, die beste Reform zur Erh\u00f6hung der Wahlbeteiligung.<\/p>

It's no secret that Massachusetts hinkt weit hinterher<\/a> In weiten Teilen des Landes arbeiten wir daran, unsere Gesetze zu modernisieren, um sicherzustellen, dass jede Stimme z\u00e4hlt, dass die Registrierung einfach und zug\u00e4nglich ist und dass kein W\u00e4hler stundenlang in der Schlange stehen muss, wie es 2012 Zehntausende taten.<\/p>

The committee's bill is a mere baby step in modernizing our elections for the 21st<\/sup> Jahrhundert, und wir brauchen einen gewaltigen Sprung. Online-W\u00e4hlerregistrierung und vorzeitige Stimmabgabe k\u00f6nnen und sollten eingef\u00fchrt werden, aber es gibt keinen Grund, dabei stehen zu bleiben. Au\u00dferdem ist die vorzeitige Stimmabgabe am effektivsten, wenn sie an Wochenenden m\u00f6glich ist und wenn es in St\u00e4dten mit vielen W\u00e4hlern gen\u00fcgend Wahllokale gibt. Die Bestimmung zur vorzeitigen Stimmabgabe in H.3647 erf\u00fcllt diese Standards nicht und wird nur f\u00fcr Pr\u00e4sidentschaftswahlen verf\u00fcgbar sein.<\/p>

The voters in Massachusetts deserve better. They deserve an electoral system with safeguards to ensure that ballots are accurately counted. They deserve an electoral system that encourages, not deters, eligible voters, especially young voters, to register to vote. And they deserve an electoral system that fosters easy access to the ballot box for ever voter \"urban or rural, working or retired\" alike. Post election audits, pre-registration, election day registration, and more expansive early voting, in addition to online voter registration, would move us much closer to this ideal than the committee's proposed bill.<\/p>

The fight for real, comprehensive election modernization now moves to the floors of the House and Senate, and Common Cause and our allies will be there every step of the way advocating for an election system that really is free, fair, and accessible to all. But we can't do it alone. If there ever was a the time to call and Schreiben Sie Ihrem Gesetzgeber<\/a>, jetzt ist es an der Zeit.<\/p>"}}]},"yoast_head":"\nWhy take baby steps for election modernization when we need a giant leap?
