El 19 de septiembre, despu\u00e9s de las 5 p. m., el Ayuntamiento de Lawrence vot\u00f3 a favor de negar a los votantes de Lawrence la posibilidad de emitir su voto por correo. Esta decisi\u00f3n de \u00faltimo minuto se produjo horas antes del plazo de 45 d\u00edas que permite a los municipios optar por no ofrecer el voto por correo en las elecciones locales, y tan solo d\u00edas despu\u00e9s de haber ofrecido con \u00e9xito el voto por correo durante las elecciones preliminares de la ciudad. La coalici\u00f3n emiti\u00f3 el siguiente comunicado:\r\n\r\nLa decisi\u00f3n del Ayuntamiento de Lawrence de no permitir el voto por correo en las elecciones municipales de 2025 representa un retroceso para el acceso al voto y una medida frustrante para muchos residentes que dependen de la seguridad del voto por correo. Las comunidades de color ya enfrentan obst\u00e1culos desproporcionados para votar, y esta acci\u00f3n solo empeora la situaci\u00f3n. Esta decisi\u00f3n se tom\u00f3 con poca participaci\u00f3n ciudadana, y un cambio de \u00faltima hora como este solo genera confusi\u00f3n y socava la confianza en el proceso electoral. El ayuntamiento debe comprometerse a implementar pol\u00edticas electorales coherentes y transparentes que permitan a todos los votantes emitir su voto de forma f\u00e1cil y segura.<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\nLa Coalici\u00f3n para la Modernizaci\u00f3n Electoral incluye a la ACLU de Massachusetts, Common Cause Massachusetts, el Centro de Derecho para la Discapacidad de Massachusetts, el Consejo de Relaciones con la Comunidad Jud\u00eda del Gran Boston, Abogados por los Derechos Civiles, la Liga de Mujeres Votantes de Massachusetts, MassVOTE, la Mesa Electoral de Massachusetts, MASSPIRG y la Liga Urbana del Este de Massachusetts.
