To protect the safety of all voters and the integrity of our elections, Common Cause is now calling for a delay of any in-person voting for at least the next few weeks. The COVID-19 crisis is reshaping many of our day-to-day lives in ways we weren\u2019t expecting, including disrupting elections, but now is the time to act to ensure our primaries and general election are held this year and conducted in a safe, fair, and orderly manner.","featured_image":"","press_type":236,"authors":["{\"site_id\":\"1\",\"post_type\":\"person\",\"post_id\":7855}"],"related_issues":[169,2066],"related_work":false,"location":46},"sidebar":{"helper_enable_sidebar":false,"helper_media_contact":{"heading":"Media Contact","manually_enter_person":false,"person":null,"name":"","role":"","phone":"","email":""},"helper_links_downloads":{"heading":"Links & Downloads","links":null}},"page_layout":[{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_wysiwyg","_acfe_flexible_toggle":null,"component_wysiwyg":{"content":"<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Las importantes perturbaciones que el COVID-19 ocasion\u00f3 en las elecciones de ayer pusieron de relieve la necesidad de hacer recortes y tomar medidas ahora para salvaguardar nuestra democracia. Para proteger la seguridad de todos los votantes y la integridad de nuestras elecciones, Common Cause ahora pide que se pospongan las votaciones en persona al menos durante las pr\u00f3ximas semanas. La crisis del COVID-19 est\u00e1 cambiando muchas de nuestras vidas cotidianas de maneras que no esper\u00e1bamos, incluida la interrupci\u00f3n de las elecciones, pero ahora es el momento de actuar para garantizar que nuestras primarias y elecciones generales se celebren este a\u00f1o y se lleven a cabo de manera segura, justa y ordenada.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ayer, el personal de Common Cause pas\u00f3 todo el d\u00eda con nuestros socios de Protecci\u00f3n Electoral ayudando a los votantes a lidiar con desaf\u00edos sin precedentes, lo que provoc\u00f3 una baja participaci\u00f3n en las urnas y una serie de otros problemas. Y durante la semana pasada, hemos estado hablando con nuestros expertos en votaci\u00f3n, nuestros l\u00edderes estatales y docenas de miembros de Common Cause sobre la mejor manera de responder. Dado que el Centro para el Control de Enfermedades ha desaconsejado los grandes eventos y reuniones en todo el pa\u00eds y ha pedido a las personas que practiquen el distanciamiento social, retrasar temporalmente la votaci\u00f3n en persona es la decisi\u00f3n responsable que deben tomar los funcionarios electorales.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nuestro pedido de posponer la votaci\u00f3n en persona no es una decisi\u00f3n que tomamos a la ligera. Common Cause tiene un largo historial de oposici\u00f3n a cambios de \u00faltima hora en las elecciones como este, que con demasiada frecuencia pueden privar a los votantes de sus derechos si se hacen apresuradamente o sin una comunicaci\u00f3n adecuada. La misi\u00f3n de Common Cause es proteger y ampliar el derecho fundamental al voto. Pero el desaf\u00edo de salud p\u00fablica y de integridad electoral que enfrentamos debido al COVID-19 hace que esta sea una medida necesaria, al menos en el corto plazo.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">En el futuro, Common Cause seguir\u00e1 trabajando con los funcionarios electorales para garantizar que tomen las medidas necesarias para que todos los votantes puedan emitir su voto de manera segura. No se trata de ning\u00fan partido o candidato en particular, sino de hacer lo correcto para todos los votantes. Si nada cambia, corremos el riesgo de que millones de votantes se queden en casa por miedo a enfermarse o infectar a otros, lo que pondr\u00eda en duda los resultados finales.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sin embargo, para las elecciones generales, Common Cause no aceptar\u00e1 ninguna demora ni ning\u00fan cambio que ponga en peligro la capacidad de cada votante elegible de emitir su voto, en particular en comunidades que ya est\u00e1n siendo blanco de la supresi\u00f3n del voto. A principios de esta semana, Common Cause public\u00f3 varias recomendaciones que se pueden implementar antes de las elecciones de noviembre para garantizar una elecci\u00f3n general libre, justa, segura y puntual incluso frente al COVID-19.
